Pray remember me kindly to Mr. Cropper and Mr.
'Benson, and present my best respects to Mrs. Rathbone
and love to the children ; believe me,
My dear Sir,
Yours very sincerely,
Rammohun Roy.
P. S.—If the German philosopher is still at Liverpool,
be good enough to remember me kindly to him, and
inform him that we have succeeded in the reform question
without having recourse to the principles of phrenology.

Letter to Mr. Woodford, of Brighton.
January, 31st, 1833.
My dear Sir,—I had on the 27th the pleasure of
receiving your obliging communication, and beg to offer
you and Mrs. W. my best thanks for this mark of atten-
tion towards me. I rejoice to observe that the translation
of the Ved's, &c, which I presented to Mrs. W. before
my departure for the continent of Europe, has proved
interesting to her and to yourself. .1 am now confirmed
in the opinion, that her good sense and her rational
devotion to religion will not induce her to reject any
reasonable sentiments, on the ground that they are not
found in this book, or in that volume.
I was detained in France too late to proceed to Italy
last year ; besides, without a knowledge of French, I
found myself totally unable to carry on communication
with foreigners, with any degree of facility. Hence I
thought I would not avail myself of my travels through
Italy and Austria to my own satisfaction. I have been
'Benson, and present my best respects to Mrs. Rathbone
and love to the children ; believe me,
My dear Sir,
Yours very sincerely,
Rammohun Roy.
