TO
ROBERT PEEL, ESQ.
Member of Parliament for the Borough of
Tamworth, &c. &c. &c.
Who, by his Ingenuity, Abilities, and Industry, has honourably
acquired a princely Fortune, and in so doing had the
Satisfaction of keeping several thousand
Persons in constant Employment:
Who, in the Time of Danger and National Difficulty, hand-
somely appropriated the munificent Sum of
TEN THOUSAND POUNDS,
TO THE EXIGENCIES OF HIS COUNTRY:
And whose Conduct,
In promoting AN UNION WITH IRELAND,
has shone so nobly disinterested:
THIS WORK,
AS A SMALL MARK OF RESPECT AND ESTEEM,
IS HUMBLY DEDICATED,
By his ever obliged, obedient.
And faithful Friend and Servant
John Stockdale.
London 6th May, 1800.
