Sir,
On the 17th instant my Nephew George Bentham
put into my hands, the letter of that date with which you had
honoured him. I owe it to yourself, as well as to him and myself
to make known to you that the fact of his having written it,
was, and the contents were and remain altogether unknown to me. It
was, by accident, as well as without my Knowledge, dated (I find) from
my house, the family he belongs to, happening to be at that very time
upon the more. When the Bills in question were sent to me, no wish
was expressed that I should take cognizance of them, nor, if there had
been, could it have been complied with. Not long after his coming
to England from the neighborhood of Montpellier when his father
and the family have for some years been living upon an estate purchased
there, I put them into his hands saying that if he could
find any thing to say about them, that was worth sayin sending
