From B.Bishop G.Gordon
June 8. 1767.
In a Letter, intended to be sent by a pri-
vate Hand through therein disappointed,
I had spoke of your poor Cousin Peg-
gie’s being well, which has since, and
very lately too, been confirmed. Poor
Girl! you seem to understand her Case
perfectly well. She greatly laments
her present Situation, &and says, she hopes
her Friends will not abandon her for
some unhappy Appearances, which
as 1902 (1902)
as Things stand with her, are
altogether unavoidable; &and wishes,
they would point out to her any
other place of tolerable Safety,
where She might see, &and converse
with, them.
