Dear Sir
If the circumstances the situation of my affairs in which I find myself were such as admitted
of my crossing the Channel on a visit of pleasure, I could not have a more
powerful irresistible inducement that what the renewal of your former very obliging invitation
of Sir. J. Parnell now affords me. Unfortunately that is not the case. As to any public purpose,
I have having nothing to sollicit, and observing I have nothing to do there
I have neither inducement nor warrant for taking.
My wishes and my opinions and my wishes on the subject remain
unchanged, but the exertions without which d wishes are simply in vain things depend
upon encouragement, exterior causes and what portion of that necessary stimulus has fallen
to my share in the course of about six years sollicitation, no one is better it is not unknown to you
able than yourself to testify.
To Sir John Parnell I write, forgive my presumption as to an old friend: but with Mr
Pelham if I may trust the concurring opinion of every body I converse with
a correspondence, should any occasion call for it would be equally honourable
and pleasant to me. But to Ld Lieutenants Secretaries and Chancellors of the
Irish Exchequer I have made by my last bow. If they on their part have no commands for me
I am mute.
