J.B. to Treasury
17 Jany 1811
Letter II
For the purpose any such purpose as that of paving the way to what
as been called "the relinquishing of the project" the
a little talk about reducing it to half the scale
agree upon may might serve for aught I know can
shall presume to say as well as any other course.
But, on the part upon any one him who should bring upon the carpet introduce any
such proposition on the carpet with any view of
carrying it seeing it carried into effect, it would rest to shew—why,
being fit to be carried on upon the scale the half
of that which was agreed upon—it is not fit to
be carried on upon the exact scale+ that was agreed
upon.+

which to
Thus no man cares
to shew them that a causeless violation
of agreement is
with honour or with
justice.
