Sir
After the bold and Determined Manner in which you avowed the principles of infidelity you Cannot be surprised if I repeat what I said in Presence of your mother, that I never would Marry an Infidel. I therefore again declare that as a Professor of the Religion which you Derided and a follower of that Blessed Jesus whose Divinity you Denied, and Sacred Name Blasphemed, I never will unite myself with you we meet no more, I will see you no more, I free you from all engagements – and declare myself free from you this the solemn fixed, and unalterable Determination of
