Sir, Mr. Hodges, the secretary of the London-Hospital, having signified to the committee, on Tuesday last, his intention of resigning that office, permit me to solicit the favour of your vote and interest to succeed him, and to assure you that, should I be the object of your choice, no exertion, on my part, shall be wanting to ... the interest of the charity and merit your [pro]bation. The canvass being very extensive, I have taken the liberty to make this application, until I can have the honour of paying my personal respects. Who am.
