Excerpt from The Theological and Miscellaneous Works of Joseph Priestley, LL. D. F. R. S. &C, Vol. 1: Edited, With Notes; Part I., Containing Memoirs and Correspondence, 1733-1787 Should Mr. Priestley allow himself, especially now, after the lapse of many years, to review his determination in 1805, he may perhaps yet bring those letters before the public, under the guidance of his own discretion. I need not say how honourable to his father's memory would be such a publication, or how much valuable in terest he would thus communicate to whatever my best exertions in the arrangement and illustration of Dr. Priestley's biography may enable me to accomplish.
