lisbed somewhat of this sort, and as the length of my 

 correspondence has sufficiently put your patience to the 

 test, I shall here take a respectful leave of you and natural 

 history together ; and am, 



With all due deference and regard, 



Your most obliged, 



And most humble servant, 



GIL. WHITE. 



Selborne, 

 June 25, 1787.
