Of the application for
relief made be there no
known powers nor resolution
but a peremptory
order requiring a full
and compleat answer
By silence, more imperious than any words could have vexation than it was in the power of
been, any words to be the obedience which I was had so fruitlessly
laboured to pay, rendered impossible. My Books and
Papers impounded and kept from me, because sent in as they were ☞ confill the Letter

they were not vouchers. || || Mr Chief Inspector

Seeking relief under this pressure; and having
occasion for a particular purpose for a short respite, on the supposition of
the existence of a set of gentlemen, acting with the authority
of Commissioners at in an Audit Office at in the Adelphi,
as some did did and do to my knowledge at the Office in Somerset
Place, I ad for the both those purposes I addressed
sent a letter speaking from recollection only a hasty Letter, in
which haste as it was the distress I was labouring which for want of
the necessary information abovementioned, I had for
upwards of two months been labouring under and which
I by the virtual refusal put signified by the Mr
Chief Inspectors paper of dated 10 March 1808, had
been to such a degree aggravated, was poss expressed presented in
as colours by much too strong not to have attracted notice
three days afterwards, always supposing the existence of these Commissioners
sitting at the Adelphi Audit Office, though anonymously always
supposed, comes a letter answer from this said indubitably existing Secretary
writing as if by their authority, signifying their compliance
with my request for time, but without
any the smallest notice taken of my abovementioned distresses as
presented in my last mentioned Letter, signifying
at the same time their expectations of a full and
complete answer to the several Questions and Observations
contained in the paper "viz: the paper
complained
which being the
subject of the complaint
I made by me
complained of by
me as above to
the Commissioners

their existence had
been enclosed by me
to the indubitably existing Secretary, and by him as mentioned in this his letter was "for that purpose" none returned to me.
