every serious man . I find that Griesbach lias published the second volume of his Symbolae Criticae . The two volumes contain Supplemental Readings to his Greek Testament ^ if I may judge of the second Dy the first .
1 have discovered that the catalogue of English translations subjoined to my book was formed by the late Dr . DucarroJ an eminent antiquarian and civilian , and whom I remember librarian at Lambeth . When Dr . Percy ^ now bishop of Droroore , came to this kingdom , he deposited in Lambeth library the articles which have his name , except a few versions of the Psalms . When I see the Bishop , I will ascertain who Dr . Gilford was .
I long wondered that the libraries and shops in this kingdom furnished me scarcely any old editions of the Bible , Psalter ^ and Liturgy ; till I found , in the course of my reading , that in the Irish rebellion of 1641 the rap * e against everv thing English and Protestant led to a general destruction of such books .
I beg my best respects to Mrs . Moore , for whose most worthy brother I had ' an unspeakable regard ; and am , Rev . Sir , Your most obedient and very faithful servant , W . Waterford .

LETTER VI . rev . siRj Dublin , March 6 , 1795 . I am much obliged to you for your constant attention to me , and particularly for the very handsome manner in which you have conveyed your congratulations on my late unexpected promotion . My duty to my large family induced me to accept of my present station : otherwise , I should have greatly preferred that life of comparative leisure which I led at WaterfbrcF , where I could devote much of mv time to the study of the
Scriptures . However , I still hope to command a reasonable portion of my time at Armagh ^ during seven or eight months in every year . The octavo edition of my Observations , &c . is proceeding in London , under the conduct of Mr . Johnson ; and I am printing here an improved version of the New Testament , with Explanatory Notes , and have advanced as far as the beginning of St . John ' s Gospel .
All the private literary news which I hear from London is , that . Dr . Hurd , bishop of Worcester , will shortly publish the Life of Bishop Warburton . I beg my best respects to my old friend Mrs . Moore ; and am * Reverend Sir , Your very faithful humble servant , William Armagh .
