Excerpt from Letters to a Young Clergyman, From the Late Reverend Mr. Job Orton
"I highly approve your design, respecting the publication of Mr. Orton's Letters. The more I see of them, the more I see the utility of such an undertaking. I considered the writer as one of the best men living - judicious, pious, benevolent, and piercingly sensible; a most instructive minister, and a most valuable and faithful friend. I had a particular intimacy with him for at least forty years. By such a publication as you intend, he will, "being dead, yet speak," and speak instructively."

I am certain, they will be a valuable present to the public, and shew so excellent and good a man to much advantage; and will be likely to carry on those useful designs, which he had so much at heart."
