As to the length of my letter believe me for it
could not be more to wear me as it was
to the reader it was beyond comparison more so to the
writer. I have it much to regret it is matter of great regret to me, but but very little to
accuse of very little of self-accusation. In conformity
to the engagement Mr Lowndes's first instructions were
to visit the land in question and no other in the
Bill. Mr Lowndes was sent for afterwords and directed to meet
the optical claim opening the door for any others.
Was any reason assigned to me for this? Not any
Was it to be ... a that I should take the
alarm at this? No surely — The length of my
plan, Sir, was in proportion to the strength of my
alarm. who then Sir was the original author
of my long letter? Myself? No Sir: but the
member of Administration who gave the new
direction to Mr Lowndes — Who was the original author
of the improprieties of my stile? Myself Sir?
No Sir but the same Ministers from so acutely
sensible of to improprieties of stile. Be assured, Sir
had the inter engagements upon and
conformed by the interval a negotiation <add>fraud of even matters been adhered to
had the instructions first given to me and then to
Mr Lowndes been adhered to, obsequeousness and
gratitude would have been the only sentiments the business could your
would have ever drawn from me . Is my obsequeoulsness
on my part in credible? — Sir Order me Sir
and I will give you at least half a dozen instances
of it and those no trivial ones.
