Robert Hall, Leicester, to William B. Gurney, Essex Street, London, 27 May 1813.

Dear Sir

  I duly received your favor: you will permit me to suggest the inconvenience of preaching two charity sermons on days immediately preceding each other.  I am engaged to preach for the Baptist Mission on the 24 instnt.  Let me then be permitted to beg it as a favor that you will defer the other sermon till the ensuing week: friday if you think proper.  [B?] Street is a place that entirely meets my approbation. 

I am dear Sir

with much esteem

yours sincerely

R. Hall

May. 27. 1813.
