Asks WW to help him gain a government pension by signing 'a kind of recommendation'. Needs a pension to carry on his 'antipapal and antifatalistic warfare'. Thinks Dr. Latham and Dr. Lee would sign the recommendation. Wants WW to forward the sale of his remaining copies of 'Anti-Popery' as it sells slowly. Needs money to pay printers bill. Booksellers want a cheap third edition to reach 'the poorer kind of readers, especially in Ireland'. When they met last Rogers disappointed in WW's commitment to helping him. Wants WW to reconsider.
