Dear Cumberland
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|
I am very much obliged by your kind ardour in my cause &
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|
should immediately Engage in reviving my former pursuits of
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|
printing if I had not now so
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
long been turned out of the old channel into a new one that it is
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
impossible for me to return to it without destroying my present
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
course New Vanities or rather new pleasures occupy my thoughts
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
New profits seem to arise before me so tempting that I have
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
already involved myself in engagements that preclude all
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
possibility of promising any thing. I have however the
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
satisfaction to inform you that I have Myself begun to print an
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
account of my various Inventions in Art <for> which I have
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
procured a Publisher & am determind to pursue the plan of
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
publishing what I may get printed without disarranging my time
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
which in future must <alone> be devoted to Designing & Painting
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
[alone] when I have got my Work printed I will send it
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
you first of any body in the mean time believe me to be
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
Your Sincere friend
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|
