Philadelphia, May 19, 1766. To the printers of the Pennsylvania gazette.

In the midst of a profound peace, it is a little surprizing, that from the craggs of Mount-Pleasant, a war should be declared against me ... I have seen a paper, signed by John M'Pherson, printed by you ... which I apprehended had a malicious design to asperse my reputation ... I hope, therefore, for an equal indulgence with others, and that should room be wanting in your next Gazette, you will be pleased to print this on a separate half-sheet, and send the copies of it with your papers, to each of your correspondents in this province, in the Jerseys, and, if you please, in New-York, and Maryland. ..
