§ 11. Disarmed
used to such businesses than myself, and better acquainted
with the official stile – if I would
draw up another in a conciser form, he would be his assistance
very ready should be at my service to bring it into a proper to lend me but
shape. What the object was of this offer, I
understood saw immediately as soon as it was made: to over awe
Mr Long
was to be over awed and forced to receive Mr Long, and furnish him with a second
Memorial so circumstanced as that he should unexposed to any pretence for bestowing
dare to bestow in it the treatment he had given
to the first. – My reply to the offer was a formal as
the offer address itself, and conveyed served to convey my acquiescence
in terms full of gratitude. – What little of any
thing may have passed further was not of moment
enough to have left any traces behind it any traces in my
memory.
Your Lordship Two instances my Lord, in which insult was employed
as a covering for fraud have already passed under review: this of the No-Memorial
adds a third. The two former that were the fruits of the ingenuity
of the Member of the Treasury: of the Senior Secretary. But in such a situation where
injustice is the lesson, juniors are not slow to learn it, find no great difficulty
in learning it.
Space between the Treasury and the Admiralty
was employ'd by me in taking my lesson and
getting such instructions from him as the time
admitted. The length was marked out for me;
it was not to exceed a sheet: the size was
to be taken cut out upon the measure that had
been taken by my master of his brother Mr Secretary's
patience. The lines of figures, according to a pattern
described to me, and which was not altogether hard
to see was to be brought out one under another
to the margin on the right hand of the paper.
Another
Here An opportunity
of instruction was
thus thrown my lap,
such as after the
seven years apprenticeship
I had been
serving I could
little have expected.
I embraced it with
the most perfect alacrity and
simplicity as well as
thankfulness, and
thus put myself to school
to learn the art of
drawing Memorials –
a promising
of two and
fifty. My simplicity
may have had
somewhat a spice of art at
the bottom of it: my
gratitude was genuine.
