To B.Bishop G.Gordon
Ten thousand thanks
for your intelligence of Pisa; which will
refresh some Friends. Those of Gask are
ever mindful of you &and yours. Your good
Wishes shall be duly remembredremembered. Yes,
dear Sir; you judge well in the Matter
of Mr Maitland. Were he to accept, Ta-
odunus has positively declared, he would
claim him as his presbyter, which would
mine poor Mr M.Maitland to all intents and
purposes; Causa Scientiæ patet. If I
rightly remember, I mentioned this
in some former Letter.”
