FROM DR. ATTERBURY.

CHELSEA, TUESDAY MORNING.

MR. DEAN,

APRIL 21, 1713^[1].

GIVE me leave to tell you, that there is no man in England more pleased with your being preferred than I am. I would have told you so myself at your lodgings, but that my waiting confines me. I had heard a flying report of it before; but my lord Bolingbroke yesterday confirmed the welcome news to me. I could not excuse myself without saying thus much, and I have not time to say more, but that I am your most affectionate and faithful servant,

FR. ATTERBURY.
