  <dc:title>Thomas Blacklock to James Beattie from Edinburgh</dc:title>
  <dc:description>His depression and difficulties over losing his amanuensis. Did not show Beattie's letter to Dr Blackburn [AUL MS 30/1/191], partly because he hoped for more information about Mr Hollis's donation to the college, but also because Beattie's letter revealed Blacklock as author of the strictures on Priestley, whom Blacklock admires. Discusses these articles in Edimburgh Magazine and Review, and mentions something he has differed from Beattie over. Because Edinburgh Magazine and Review is not widely read in England, is considering putting the articles on Priestley in a pamphelet or volume</dc:description>
