Summary:

Proposed by some of [William] Roscoe's best friends at Liverpool to raise a subscription to buy a £5,000-£6,000 annuity for him in recognition of his contributions to the city; asks Smith to interest [Thomas William] Coke, "the manly supporter and vindicator of all that is liberal in public and private life", in the fund. Roscoe's oppostion to the scheme has been overcome.
