A few Days ago He brought two me Copys of two Letters which He had written to You some time ago Concerning some Military Arrangement about Himself & desired me most earnestly to interest myself for Him with Yr Majesty. His request, I refused, & my writing now is not only at present but ever shall be a Secret to him. But I think it my Duty to tell You that in He ['He' crossed out] my Conversation with Him I find, that in receiving no answer at all not only makes him wretched, but I will fairly own that I did have ['have' crossed out] hear before He mentioned it to me, that some of the Opposition hearing of it, have again begun under Hand to Try to bring Him over to them'
