Summary
Saying that he should not "rely upon the opinion I gave you of the time when the House of Lords may probably give Judgment on Mr. Hastings Trial, therefore I think if the Information is officially material to you, you had better take the earliest opportunity of waiting upon the Chancellor [Lord Loughborough] & asking him the Question."
