To the independant livery of the City of London: A card. An independant liveryman of this City presents his respects to the unpoll'd livery, and flatters himself there is a sufficient Number left who have Gratitude enough to shew the World, that the Merits of Mr. Deputy Paterson shall not go unrewarded; that the Man who has laboured more than twenty Years for the Advantage of this City, shall be rewarded with the Honour of being one of it's Representatives. Mr. Paterson's abilities are allowed even by his enemies; and is it not reasonable to suppose, that those Abilities will be exerted to the utmost if you make him one of your Representatives? And though it has been repeatedly said Mr. Paterson will be chose for some Borough if he loses his Election here, and that he has such Affection for the City, that he will unceasingly labour for it's Advantage? Suppose this true, (and those that know him best know it to be true) yet, surely, this is the strongest Argument that can be urged in his Favour, and remember, that he himself has declared, that he has no Prospect of coming into Parliament but for the City of London. I therefore hope the Undetermined will this Day determine to Poll for Mr. Paterson, whose Abilities have Planned, and whose Industry has Perfected, so many Services to the City of London
