J.B. for Henderson to GulleLett.2

that in return for a recompense for not more less than half of I knew not part
of his time, he should give up what you say
you thought from the first, and still continue to
think, a recompense more than adequate for the
whole. The other is, that in return for one hundred
guineaspound more he shall render you a freshnew
service greater in value to yourself than that for which you andm
all he has yet done you put together.

Your custom hitherto, the practise of your life,
never deviated from as yet, in any single instance I have your own
express word for it, has been for every favour to
make "at least a a sevenfold return."- Sir it is a
bad practise: you forget your wife and children: no
fortune, not even your's can bear it. Make a
bold effort, Sir, and break it off: try the experiment
upon this man: reward him one-fold.
As you know yourself, so do I know mine: being
a mere bargain-driver I pretend to nothing more
I make you a fresh offer for fear I should not
be able to compass my ends without it. Give me
the £300, give me even the £200, and Huch
Newton is your own.
