Longford 11th October 1755\n\nI thank you for your letters, and accounts of the Proceedings of the Society; you mention to me, that rusty Bacon poisoned will destroy Norway Rats: though mine are a good deal thinned by a Rat Catcher, I have a mind to try that Remedy: but can you inform me how to poison Bacon and I have been advised to lay cuttings of the yew Tree, which when withered is reckoned a rank poison, the rats here have eaten a good deal of it, but I can't say, whether they have been poisoned by it, I shall however continue to lay it. \n\nI will get you to desire the Chairman at the next Meeting of the Society, to propose William Brotherton Esq as a Candidate to be balloted for at the next meeting; he is a Gentleman of my acquaintance; He lives in Lincolns Inn Fields. \n\nI am, \n\nYour obedient Servant, \n\nFolkestone
