Scope and content
Was bold to write on behalf of his uncle, John Sonlley, whom it has pleased God to call for out of this transitory life since the time William Maurice wrote to him for answer in this matter. The reply imported that money is scant this year and advised forbearance for a time. Robert Sonlley's aunt, John Sonlley's wife, is destitute, having charge of children, and is in debt, finding the benevolence of men in churches to be of small purpose. She was advised to make means unto friends to speak to their tenants to bestow their devotions in lambs and kids. And because William Maurice's country is well furnished with cattle and such like, and the price of them so low this year, and money so scant, Robert Sonlley's aunt entreats William Maurice's expected and respected favour among his tenants. In so doing he will do a charitable deed in taking compassion on the fatherless children and widow.
