Sir,

     I think myself under greater Obligations to you than I can say for  appointing me to the first Gardiners Place under Cap. Bligh, which Mr. Salisbury informed me of on his return - I leave this Place on tuesday for Lincolnshire and shall be ready to come to London at a Day's warning whenever you are so good as to give me a Line for that purpose - I shall be at Mr. Reynardson's Holywell near Stamford, and am your very obliged faithful Servant
James Wiles
