have no objection to it. — No certainly. well
then, there is a new 74 which you may
have if you please: but as the warrant for
the frigate is already in your name, it
will not be so proper that another warrant
for another ship should be made out in
the same name immediately after. Ld
S. and Ld Dudley (Qu. what can the
latter have to do with the business?) are to
lay papers before the house next Thursday,
and such a change might appear
odd. Some other person's name must therefore
be put into the warrant for the 74 of which
mention is to be made in the
papers Mr Hughes for example: but as
soon as ever the accounts are delivered in
there that to Mr Hughes may be cancelled,
< and another made out for you. What the
consideration was to be for the frigate, he
either did not tell me, or I do not remember:
that for the 74 was to be £100
a year for three years; but he proposes
to pay a sum down at once — But how
said I do you settle about the time of payment?
I hope you do not pay any thing first. Oh,
no, said he, never fear me; not a penny
till I have the warrant in my pocket on
Thursday or the next day, I hope to have
it: and when I have it I will bring it
you.
Miscellaneous particulars — Mrs Steele
asked him whether he should not like to
have a boy of his brought in to the <lb/. Chapter-house. [Ld N. & Ld S. are both
Governors of that charity] This he declined
for the present, fearing to disoblige a friend
who had undertaken to get the boy into the Blue-coat School.
