Dear Doctor

I have pass'd a week here with Mr Precentor, & assisted at all his functions in the Minster with the greatest regularity. he is at present gone to meet Ld & Lady Holdernesse at Aston, but returns (I believe) on Wednesday: after wch (on Saturday or Sunday probably) I hope to see you at Old-Park, if you have no objection. otherwise you will direct to me at Mason's.

Adieu, I am ever Yours T G July 10. 1762. York.
