May 6th 1789
Sr
I received with great Pleasure the Address you transmitted to me, & my Colleague & myself have taken care that it shall be presented to his Majesty thro’ the hands of the Secretary of State. I have no doubt, but that this Expression of the Loyal Congratulations of the Dissenting Ministers in the County I have the Honor to represent, will be most graciously received by his Majesty.
I am with my best Respects
to your Gentlemen
Your most obliged
humble Svt
H Duncombe
I beg Pardon for not having before acknowledged your Letter respecting the Repeal of the Test Act, which I mean to attend & support.
