Peterloo collection : Letter by J. Neville to Rev. Hay
Nenille, James
Peterloo collection
<p style='text-align: justify;'> Copy [in the hand of W. R. Hay] of a letter from James Neville dated Liverpool, September 5, 1819. Like many letters he had received after Peterloo, the nature of this letter is quite offensive and hostile towards Rev. Hay: '... Shame! Shame! That a clergyman should head a band of privileged murderers, and invite the to acts of bloodshed and massacre. ....' </p>
