Canterbury, May 28, 1806.

Sir,--I am glad to find, by your letter, that you are not
concerned in the illiberal and {38} unfounded paragraphs which
have appeared and daily are appearing in the public prints.

I am, Sir, your very humble servant,

NELSON.

The Rev. Dr. Scott.

The above have never been printed, and I shall be glad if they are
thought worthy of a place in your very useful and interesting
periodical. I am, Sir, &c.,

ALFRED GATTY.

Ecclesfield, 7th Nov. 1849.

[3] The Battle of Trafalgar was fought October 21.
