| Evidence: | Thomas Campbell to John Murray, 2 June 1809:
'I received the review, for which I thank you, and beg leave through you to express my best
acknowledgements to the unknown reviewer. I do not by this mean to say that I think every
one of his censures just [...] But altogether I am pleased with his manner, and very proud of
his approbation. He reviews like a gentleman, a Christian, and a scholar.'
