To the GENTLEMEN, CLERGY, and FREEHOLDERS, of
the COUNTY of CHESTER.—

HAVE 'been. solicited by a most respectable
Body of Freeholders of the Town and Neighbourhood of
Stockport, to come forward as a Candidate for the Rept esen-
tation of the County of Chester, by two •Requisitions sent to
toe, of which the subjoined are Copies: 1 have also been up.
plied to, personally, by a number of Gentlemen of great re-
spectabilityin the Town of Macclesfield, on -the like occasion.
They, at the same time signified tome their intention of ay •
plying to the Mayor, to convene a Public Meeting of the
Freeholders of the Borough, with a view to ascertain their
sentiments, which they assured me •they had every reason to
believe were in unison with their own, and which, by a Copy
of the Resolutions entered into at the Meeting held this day,
and• setA to me, I find to be the case.
A similar application has also been made tome by several
Gentlemen of the County.
These- several applications being accompanied with a De-
claration, that if I declined offering my services, they would
apply to some other Gentlman, I hope and trust (under these
circumstances) that should the Peace of the County be dis-
turbed, it will not he considered thatlam the cause of it, by
offering myself as a Candidate. - •
It is:therefore My determination to request the Honour of
your Votes and Interest at the next general Election, and
should I
,be so Latunate as to be elected one of your Repre7-
sentatives, I beg leave to assure you it will ever be my earnest
endeavour to emulate those exertions which procured for soy
Father your confidence, by the most unremitting attention
to discharge, to the utmost of my power, all the duties of so
high and important a trust.
I have the Honour to be,
.Gentlemen
tour most obedient and very} faithful Servant,
