To the WORTHY and INDEPENDENT FREEMEN of
the CITYof DURHAM. -

'GENTLEMEN, •
A_LLOW, to offer you my sincere Acktkow_
ledzinents, for your recent exertions in my, behalf,
which I 'Nall ever remember with gratitude, although riot
terminate-d- with the success we had every reason to expect.
The decision against me will, in no degree, lessen my regard
for you, or diminish the interest 1 shall always take in the
prosperity of this City..
During the -short time. I served you as your Member, -and
occasionally r-esided among you, I appeal to yourselves whe-
ther I ever withheld kindness from those to whom it was
due, or turned away from the claims of the distressed. Your
Charitable Institutions were an object of my care ; and every
plan that encouraged Industry met .with my Assistance and
Support. A 5 to my Public Life, you were fully acquainted
with.my principles when you first eleded me ; and it is well
known that I have in no instance deviated from them. I was
an enemy to the War, because I thought it contrary to your
interests ; I was an lVocate for Peace, becauSl knew it
would contribute to your comf;rts ; Y never gave a Vote that
endangered the Security of the Subjed ; and, looking as a man
to the haPpihess of the human race, I have been art uniform
and steady opposer of the Slave Trade., urge' not;these-
topics with any other view \than that of justifying 'my pre.
tensions to your favour.
ThialTriy nrobat?ly he tl7'.-: I.Ac firm.
riodriitTarldressing you : thr4vent that has lately taken place
must naturally separate us : but there arc many among you,,
111 ith whom I cannot pirt without the deepest sensations of
r-egret ; and it will be i great satittaction to me hereafter to
learn, that, although I am no longer-your Representative, I
may still be considered as your Friend. I remain, .
Gentlemen, • .
With the greatest
.esteem and regard,. your ,obliged and
faithful Servant,
