repair. The part complained of will be attended to at the next 
Meeting, at Holywell, at eleven o’clock on Wednefday the 8th of 
February. We Tuall be happy ts fee any gentlemen on the 
part of your city. ~~ 
Excuse me if I remind the city of Chefter. the county, and 
alfo the county of Fizt, that our importance is fuch;+hat ee de-

- mand of a mail is a matter of right; not a petition for-fayor, 
How fuperior is the juftice of our claim to that of Salop, whica 
had long fince its independent mail! 
Iw refpect to my particular actings, I never will perfift in any 
thing that is wrong; nor defift from any thing that is right. 
Our clame for abolifhing the exemption from tolls is founded on 
common honefty. My feizing on the guard was the act ofan 
attentive magiftrate, to prevent future murders. Two, if not 
three, had been committed: one near Conwy; another in Ay- 
glefey: befides the terror {pread along the whole road by the 
wanton conduc¢t of the profligate guards. I brought the affair 
before our quarter-feffion; more to fet it in the true light than 
to punifh the offender. I was afperfed in your city; but the 
examination wiped away the dirty paragraph. 
I am, Sir, 
Your moft obedient humble fervant, 
Tuomas PENNANT. 
To the worfbipful the Mayor of Chefter.
