From L. Ashton to [F. Baker]. Ashton writes to tell of the death of Dr. Winstanley who died on the 15th May in London after an unsuccessful operation to save his life. He was buried soon after in London rather than being interred at his home. Ashton expresses his esteem for Winstanley and speaks of his family. He goes on to enquire about the provincial meeting and asks for a meeting with Baker to conduct an exchange. A Dr. Hutton is mentioned.
