As to Frazer's letter

It is more probable than not that Sam would have
no opportunity of shewing it: but as the contrary
is not impossible, it would be a pity I think he should lose the
chance. Suppose for example he should be brought into
discussions with the Countess's friends, and they were to say
to him who are you? who knows any thing of you in
your own country? Tue it is, that the good opinion
entertained of Sam here at the office probably comes from Sir James
Harris: (though this is not certain: it might possibly have
arisen in past in a way more or less roundabout from
Ld Shelburne, Ld Sidney or Pole Carew) But this is
more than people would know in Russia: they might
think Sir J. Harris's good opinion of him was grounded originally
on the character he bore here, even among people of
that class.

If it were a matter of entire indifference, it is a letter you
would naturally be glad to keep: but if you think with me
that there is a faint chance of its being of service to Sam
you will as naturally prefer sending it to him — I have
sent him mine from Fitzherbert.
