Legh Richmond letters, 1807-1815.

This collection consists of three letters. Two letters are from 1807 and are addressed to a Reverend Aspland in Cambridge, who appears to be a librarian. In the first letter, dated 20 July 1807, Richmond tells Aspland that a Dr. Jowet has advised him to borrow several books from the library. He refers to works by several men, calling them martyrs. The second letter from Richmond to Aspland is dated 21 October 1807 and again refers to works Richmond is interested in borrowing. These two letters may relate to his research for Fathers of the English Church.
