of the hand, your discharge whenever you
please into the next hollow: and the
mechanism though I did not stay to
examine it seemed simple. Let me
recollect; you and I were once together
and saw that with the rest.
All this while I should tell you that
the sine qua non, the credit on the
Banker, is not yet arrived: but even if
it were, and were the wished-for appointment
from Potemkin come, I
suppose you would hardly think it advisable
to engage with anybody to
go over till you had been on the
spot, and seen whether you should
like to take any part of in the management:
but if you were clearly and <lb> absolutely determined not to think of it
for yourself, then if with a view of
serving any person whom you thought
capable of undertaking such a charge
you had a mind to turn it over altogether to
such person, I should have no objection:
but in that case, my brother
and I should not interest ourselves any
farther in the affair, except that upon
the credit of your recommendation,
I would deliver over tot he person in question
what money I receive.
