mentioned Mr. Nepean as a Gentleman who knows the
whole of the business from the commencement of it to the
last stage: who knows a great deal about it that by considerations
of delicacy and propriety he has been restrained
from communicating to me, but who to you (I am satisfied)
would communicate every thing that could be of use.
If, from any cause, it should have happened that you
have not yet turned the matter in your thoughts, you will,
at any rate, I flatter myself, have the goodness to say something
to me by which my expectations in regard to time
may in some measure be directed. —

no such goodness. Instead of it he gave me an
answer, conceived in the that same spirit of
which as is conspicuous in the letter of Mr Wiley Addington
and which in the natural offspring of the union of
timidity and guile.
Mr. Vansittart
