I am an inhabitant of a borough house in Chippenham and my Father is a free holder at Lacock but as I did not take the House before Saint Thomas Day I could not give you a vote but it was my intent and Father would willingly give you a vote for the County if required My favour is if you please to be so kind as to allow me to Bake some of the Bread that is to be given away by you at Chippenham as I am a Baker

Dr Sir
I am your Most Ob^t Humble S^t
