The purpo object we have proposed to ourselves is not only
to state the facts connected with the Greek cause in England:
& if what we have paid serious more particularly gone spoken somewhat at length into the proceedings
of the Greek Committee, it is because we consider that body to
have represented the sympathies of English feeling in favor of
Grecian independence. The measures adopted by the Committee
are sufficiently eloquent to speak for themselves. They appear to us to have been
altogether wise & salutary. Of the active thirst which animated
that Committee, – of the desire they felt to obtain the best information
& to turn it to the best account we ourselves have seen abundant
evidence. We know that several thousand letters were received by
by the Committee, referring to almost every subject the discussion
of which could benefit Greece. For a long time they sat daily – for
two years they sat weekly – & their relations extended far beyond
the limits of Europe. In their Among them will be found the names
of many of the most illustrious of our poets – of our statesmen – of our merchants –
and certainly no men ever exhibited a dedicated themselves more cordially to the
cause they had espoused
