Scope and content
Written from Branstone, Grantham. Asks French if he is recovered from the excitement of the previous week, asks if he could ask for some help with a difficult clause he has encountered in Isaiah IX 2. If French has a chance to consult Lee or Skinner, Selwyn would like to know their opinion. Happy to say that the orphan, Truhore (?) election French kindly constituted came in 8th on the list (25 elected) with 8540 votes. Proceeds to detail in Greek, Hebrew and English various passages that he is struggling with.
