[I believe I did not tell you that Sr Jos:h Yorke
gave me 2 political pamphlets lately published
They happened to become the subject of conversation
as lying on the table in his study when I was
with him in the morning. One is entitled "Memoire
justicatif de la conduite de la grande Bretagne
en arretant les navires étrangers et les munitions
de Guerre destinèes aux Insurgens de l'Amerique.
Londres: Imprimè par Harrison & Brook 1779 Quarto.
