Friar Lawrence is a character from the play 'Romeo and Juliet', written by William Shakespeare. He is the one who tries to help the ill-fated lovers to realize their love, by planning the deceive they wanted to play on their families, he told Juliet what she had to do to fake her death and then sent Romeo a letter to explain him everything. Sadly, his letter never reached him, because the messenger is stopped by the people of the town of Mantua, because of their suspect that he comes from a house that was infected by the plague.

Who was supposed to deliver Friar Laurence's letter to Romeo?

Well, that is a complicated question, because no letter like that is delivered: There was a letter to Romeo talking about the false-death plan, but it was never delivered. Friar Lawrence wrote that letter and Friar John was supposed to deliver it, but was unable to due to a quarantine. Balthasar is the one who tells Romeo that Juliet has died (although she has not... this is the false-death that she will awake from), but he just tells him; he doesn't deliver a letter.

Why wasn't Friar Laurence's letter delivered to romeo and did Friar John go to Mantua himself or did he try to get a messenger?

Friar Laurence's letter is not delivered to Romeo because Friar John was kept in quarantine since there was a plague in his house. Friar John wanted to go to Mantua himself but he couldn't. Once Friar Laurence hears this he says: "Now must I to the monument alone. Within these three hours will fair Juliet wake. She will beshrew me much that Romeo Hath had no notice of these accidents; But I will write again to Mantua, And keep her in my cell till Romeo come." His plan is to go to the tomb, get Juliet then write a second letter. But Friar Laurence's second letter is never sent to Romeo because Romeo's servant Balthazar has already told him Juliet is dead. Romeo arrives at the tomb before Friar Laurence can even write the second letter, which results in Romeo killing himself, which results in Juliet killing herself.
