[Of the my confidence in the personal
character
of the Right Honourable Gentleman I have
the honour of addressing, you will judge, Sir,
from the fact, that with these designs in my mind,
I have not yet taken so much as a single step
for procuring subscriptions for a Company or for
a person to be eventually sent out by the leading
subscribers, for the purpose of making survey and
report for their information. At the same time, under
the uncertainty, which necessarily hangs over
the result of an address such as this, any ulterior
suspension of those necessary steps, is what I can
not regard myself as warranted in giving the assurance
of.]
At present, my affairs call me back to
France, for which Country I have already obtained
the necessary passport If I do not between this
and [mention the day] receive the honour of an
appointment from you, I shall conclude that
your present engagements do not afford the necessary
leisure: but unless forbidden, I shall at Paris
be for some time waiting your commands.
