Reply to the London Evening Post on the Society for the Recovery of Drowned Persons
A Society in London that rescues drowning victims defends its medal gifts and governance against a critic who questioned their motives. The letter asserts medals honored founders Dr Cogan and William Hawes and officers Horsfall Bull and Alderman Bull, explains costs, and praises the society’s frugality and integrity while countering accusations of vanity and misrepresentation.

England and Scotland taxes and unity urged in 1777 tract
A fragment from 1777 describes the burden of taxes on English freeholders and tradesmen while questioning the justification of Scots paying for English governance. It urges Englishmen to act to preserve the empire and prevent Ireland and America from dissolving it, framing the issue as a call to justice for Scotland and America.
