Summary
Writing an opinion on an issue before the Prince; saying that "The Object is to convey to the Commissioners in the ablest Terms, which can be imagined, that They have insulted Him by the most empty verbiage: and the only Doubt which occurs at present, is, whether the [illegible] so much upon Their own expression does not blemish the Civility intended to be observed. If that be thought so by H.R.H., It will be easier to leave that out than it was to crowd it in."
