Protests on Toleration and Corn Prices in Open Letter
An open letter to the printer discusses religious toleration in France and urges cautious treatment of Romish subjects in Britain. It then raises questions about land enclosure, farming practices, and rising bread and meat prices, arguing enclosures and grazing reduce open fields, shrink grain supply, and inflate prices for corn and meat. The writer critiques landowners, enclosers, and farm graziers, linking policy to cost of living and farmer prosperity.
