I more than most men; have cause to be thankful for many striking interpositions of Divine Providence in my favour. At [indeciphable] my family are [indecipherable] God has blessed me in my basket and my store - and has given me all things richly to enjoy. I trust I shall see that I have not laboured in vain; and that in the great day of account some even from this foreign land will be found meet for the kingdom of Heaven. Difficulties I must still expect more or less; but I find now that it is not a little thing that will affect me. Should you see Mrs Henry Thornton, I beg you will present my respectful compliments and also to Mrs Wilberforce.
I have the honout to br,
Sir, your most obedient humble servant,
Samuel Marsden
