January %, 1773. 1 shall now relate to you a conver saiiun which I had to day with Mr. , one of Mr. principal : no lids, indeed, it was my intention vo have made you acquainted witu ii?e *ubject as soon as he had return ed ; but, knowing that it was of no great consequence and being much engaged, 1 really could not find an opportunity last week. He returned as might have been expected. i wo or three mote ex presses were dispatched previous to his arrival; one from , to tell his friends lie could not come yet ; ?>ut, that lie wished tu attend the meeting on American aflkirs ou Fri day \ aij answer went by express to fix another day. This most fortu nately was too tate ; so, that to his great mortification, he became in witnout any Noise. A day or two ago I heard a report which some of his friend* had been bu?y in spreading abroad. Some very good sort of people, who had been real friends to us told me, that you had not behaved well to him when in London. 1 i ..mediately de sired him lo contradict it. Mr. ? and 1 h ,d a great deal of coii\ersation to day, His activ? Uy ami civility to Mv , niuke US look upon him as one of tiie piin cipals ot the party. He was in my service.

He told me he , had hea d a great deal of your cool- i Iiess to iu.n ; and, that he nad even received letters from London, from some oi his friends of the hill of i ignis 1 suppose, to ask whether any coolness subsisted been Mr. - and yourself. He added that Mr. wished for an intimacy and that he had wailed on you for the first time lie canle to town, dined * * i * but, ttiat you paid him no - civility in return ; aud even on the first day of the session, took not the least notice of hint?continued this coolness till, liUum e.ieutis? after he havi made his .speech when, you , spoke to him very cordially. Audi ! that you iiad uoi in any &hape offer- | eel to introduced him to any of your friends dor expressed ?ny desire for I nK joining you in political opinions, i 1 lep led that it Mr. ??? wished tor an intimacy he certainly wan person to have m .de oVer urcs lor that purpose, and ' Wrfs Co lam that in that cane, you would have properly introduced him. As to tne il*UHe and your Coheauges in that Station oi Life you were prevemeu paying him that personal attention winch men ot less con tjuchc.e and business might have in tneir \x .we*1 to pay. I tolk hiih farther that it Mr. had made the slightest ovti inres, y< u would most readily and warmly have ansWtJed them. 1 hat your speaking to him so cordially in the House was owing 10 nothing more than from ihe plea sure vou received at his coiiuuct j and iha with icspect to his introduction to the I louse, I knew that you would have thought it very impertinent to have inter \ red alter he had so publicly thrown him a-if mto the anna of >>ir Mcreuith and Mr. -aroche ; that it a coolness nad began I ost seriously wished it at an end. lie aid a good deal about Mr. indepen t nt spiiit.
