Extract

The Rev. Mr. Todd, to whose kindness I was lately indebted for the opportunity of communicating to the Society the representation of a very ancient and curious Font in Yorkshire, has now requested me to present in his name three Drawings of other antiquities in that county, which have been executed for him by Mr. Barton, a young artist of promising talents.
