Dispensing favor
King had been not unfaithful: his practical
the practical indications recommendations pointed to the lowest degree
above 0 which at that time could be found:
which with the stock of information, he was at that time
in possession of, could be found: at while his theory,
besides furnishing a the pretence for the reduction reducing of the
number at the first stroke so much below the fair one, laid a foundation
for the further reductions which upon further grew out of further
consultation it afterwards experienced.
If indeed the 2150, thus recommended to be given,
had been actually given, the complexion of the case would have worn been
in some respects different: a different complexion: of the two crimes – the
as an assumption of some legislative power, and the exercise
of it, the latter would have been either done away
or at any rate the offer of it reduced. I, as an individual in my individual capacity should
have been not have complained: the only mischief done
would have been the wound to the constitution – the contempt put upon the authority
of Parliament. But all this – Your Lordship sees –
is but supposition: the fact is the number given
me was – not the 2150, but the 9 cypher at the end of it.
The evidence – the written part of it I mean
consists not simply of this one letter; but of
the series of communications documents, of which on the part
of the Secretary of State's office, this letter is was the first.
