MR. JOHN BARBER TO MR. FORD^[1].

SIR,

LAMBETH HILL, JULY 6, 1714.

I THANKFULLY acknowledge the receipt of a packet^[2] sent last Sunday. I have shown it only to one person, who is charmed with it, and will make some small alterations and additions to it, with your leave. You will the easier give leave, when I tell you, that it is one of the best pens in England. Pray favour me with a line.

I am, sir,⁠⁠

⁠⁠⁠your most obedient servant,

JOHN BARBER.
