To the Editor of the Monthly Repository .
SIR , On readir . g the Memoirs of Mr . Stogdon in your two last numbers , I recollected that I had in my possession the copy of a
letter written to that gentleman , bv the celebrated Dr . Waits , in consequence of receiving from him a MS . relating to the doctrine of the Trinity . As your
readers may be gratified by the perusal of it , I send it to you to be inserted in your next number , by way of supplement to the Memoirs , Of its authenticity you need not doubt . Indeed the

I thankfully receive sir , the great candour and respect with which your epistle treats me , and make this fret confession to you , that the greatest part of your manuscript speaks much of my sense and thought concerning the doctrine of charity , and if those arguments had been published alone to the world , and concluded with that most solemn
and pious account of your friend in the three last pages , without any regard to my book , I would assure you sir , you should have found no answer from me , for I confess I cannot refute them .
