Show moreKirkland 126b William Gordon to Samuel Kirkland Ipswich July 13, 1790 My dear Sir Your kind letter, with the extracts from your Journal, found me under confinement at this place, where I spent the first thirteen years of my ministry. On the 13th of June, in the morning, while attempting to go down stairs, my left foot slipped from under me, when my right was taken up, so that with the force of the fall and the weight of my body my right leg was carried with such violence against the opposite side of the passage as to break the small bone, to injure some others and strain the sinews of the foot very considerably. The whole were soon reduced to their proper places; and little of a feverish complaint followed. Much mercy was mixed with painful Providence, that marred all our plans. Mrs. Gordon and self were to have went on the Wednesday following to London to have visited our relations and friends, and to have brought a number of articles for completing our house, and to have been at home on last Lord's day sennight. Infinite wisdom has ordained otherwise. Blessed be God, I am as well recovered for the time as could be expected, and by this day fortnight or thereabouts hope to be well enough to bear the motion of the carriage well enough so as to admit of our returning to St. Neots. Though so long since the death of Mrs. Kirkland , I doubt not your needing at time the sympathy of your friends. May your Christian wishes in regard to us be happily accomplished! Your apology for not having made further communications on the head of Indian tradition is sufficient. Your historical abstract I have transcribed the past morning, and shall forward to London for insertion in the European Magazine. I rejoice in your intending to make further trial for procuring for me Indian tradition, and shall rejoice in the receipt of those articles you may deem worthy of notice, as much as if they were old European coin. Is the Brant you speak of, the same that sided with the British against the Americans? How large do you imagine his History will be? and where will it be printed? If it should be sent across the Atlantic, a copy should be taken before being put on board for fear of a miscarriage. If printed in America, procure a copy as soon as possible, and send it to Mr. Mason by the earliest opportunity, with your notes and judgment upon it, to be forwarded by him through the medium of some Captain. Saving the trial mentioned in the beginning, we enjoy good health; and have many comforts, though but a moderate income. Mr. Thornton was well, the last I heard of him. We have no communication. He was so Anti-American, that when I called upon him soon after my return to London in a way of civility, he received me with the utmost coolness, and did not so much as ask me to sit down; so that I have not sought his acquaintance since. He has three sons, I think, chosen members for the new parliament they were in the last. Mrs. Thornton has been dead some years, and Mr. Thornton continues a widower. He continues to support an amiable character; but the separation of the United States from Great Britain has I imagine in measure alienated his mind from those good people who did not think alike with him in politics. It is very hard even for the best of Christians to divest themselves of a party spirit. Present appearances indicate too strongly a rupture with Spain. Whatever may be the success of the war, the body of the people will be the sufferers from the expenses of it. The American policy I hope will be - Peace and trade with all the world. Mrs. Gordon joins in the most cordial affections with Your sincere friend William Gordon Let your direction be to me at No. 11 Cornhill London.

It is nearly out of print. Suffer me to urge you with earnestness to prosecute with vigor the collecting and sending for me to Mr. Mason's the remaining traditionary accounts that the aged blind Indian Historiatraditor has yet to communicate in addition to what has been already given. Both our lives, as well as his, are uncertain, and I wish to have the work completed. I have before assured you that if the work goes to the press, and yields any profits, you shall share in the same. We are not yet settled, but hope to be so in less than three months. I have been invited to preach at St. Neots in Huntingdonshire, 56 miles from London, about 26 from the place where I was born, and 18 from Cambridge. If spared and permitted of Heaven, I shall go thither the beginning of July. It is I am told a very pretty town. Should not the people and I be suitable to each other, we shall go into a house that I hired here before I received the invitation. We are at present, blessed be God, in good health and spirits, upon a visit to a friend's house, till our future removal is concluded upon. Last November twelvemonth Mrs. Gordon was dangerously ill of a fever, which lay much in her right hand and wholly crippled the same. After some weeks she so far recovered the use of it, that she can dress and undress herself, sew, write, and do other light business; but it is weak, and her fingers are too much stiffened to admit of being opened and being used as the other. We are thankful to our heavenly Father that it is so far restored. I shall be glad to hear whether religion gains ground and flourishes among the Indians. We wish you growing success in your labors among, and a rich harvest of souls. Mrs. Gordon joins in affectionate remembrance to Mrs. Kirkland and your sons, with your sincere friend William Gordon The Reverend Mr. Kirkland In the care of Jonathan Mason Sr. Esquire Reverend William Gordon D.D.
