The the Editor of the Carlisle Patriot.
Sir,
I observe in your paper, and also in the Carlisle Journal for the 29th ult., that the late Robert Carr Brackenbury, of Raithley-Hall, Esq. is represented as having been at one time a well known character on the Turf. From the long person intimacy which subsisted between him and myself, I can assure you and your readers, he never was a Sporting character. At an early period of life, he joined the Wesleyan Methodists, and for upwards of 40 years, has been a respectable and useful Minister and member of that body of Christians.
I am, Sir, yours &c.
J.L.
Carlisle, Sep. 10, 1818
