London Letter on Gas and Morality in 1756
A long 18th century missive discusses gas as a vice fueling church and state decay. It imagines clerical, military, and civil roles corrupted by wealth focus, warns of future aristocratic misrule, and ends with a faithful appeal to Providence. A Somerset county address follows, praising the king, lamenting Minorca’s loss, and urging unity and justice.
