without shame. Sed de hic plus satis.

Talking with Ld B. yesterday (nobody else in the room) about
the riots, he took notice that in the Scotch assembly (national ecclesiastical assembly what d'ye call it) there were but
2 voices against the toleration. O yes says I, I understand it was
not with the Clergy that it originated, but with a parcel of low-lived
fellows of Caymen in the neighbourhood of Glasgow — No, no says he - not
with them — With whom then? — with people here — These last
words were pronounced with an air of mystery and with a hush
of the voice - Who he meant I can not pretend to say: it
could not be the ministry: for besides that nothing could be more
against their interest, if he had meant them he would have Spok
out: it could not, I think be the Rockinghamites: it could not
have been Ld G.G: for nobody would have thought of making a
mystery of his name. I leave you to form your own conclusion.

Ld S. says that when he was in town (about 3 weeks ago) a
Mr Oswald who is a strong Royalist and much connected with
Ld Mansfield told him that it was a certain fact that the French
had at last seen the necessity of supplying the Americans with money
that they had accordingly sent 600,000 £St: and that if it reach
them, there must be an end of all our hopes.
