Dear Sir
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Mr Cromek the Engraver came to me desiring to have some of
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
my Designs. he namd his Price & wishd me to Produce him
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Illustrations of The Grave A Poem by Robert Blair. in consequence
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
of this I produced about twenty Designs which pleasd so well that
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
he with the same liberality with which he set me about the
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Drawings. has now set me to Engrave them. He means to Publish
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
them by Subscription. with the Poem as you will see in the
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Prospectus which he sends you in the same Pacquet with the
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Letter. You will I know feel as you always do on such
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
occasions. not only warm wishes to promote the Spirited Exertions
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
of my Friend Cromek. You will be pleased to see that the Royal
L60.1Hyley11'05; E766|
Academy have Sanctioned the Style of work. I now have reason
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
more than ever to lament your Distance from London as that alone
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
has prevented our Consulting you in our Progress. which is but of
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
about two Months Date I cannot give you any Account of our
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Ballads for I have heard nothing of Phillips this Age I hear them
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
approved by the best that is the most Serious people. & if any
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
others are displeasd it is also an Argument of their being
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
successful as well as Right. of which I have no Doubt for what is
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
Good must Succeed first or last but what is bad owes success to
L60.1Hayley11'05; E766|
something beside or without itself if it has any
