Philadelphia, August 5. Extract of a letter from a gentleman
of distinction of the Borough of Lancaster, dated the 8th[?]
instant.
...[2 paragraphs, the second disparaging Lord Stormont, ends
with:] 
Send the boy home, and let him learn to spell;
Get a good season'd birch, and warm him well;
'Twill mend his manners, help and cure his fits,
And frequent flogging bring him to his wits.  Comus.
