This pamphlet or 'letter' is addressed to an anonymous recipient and written by a 'country gentleman'. At the time, this form of anonymous and conversational writing was a conventional way to level (as well as deal with) criticism. The 'Letter' is an example of many such publications criticizing - as well as justifying - the emerging Methodist movement.
