TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
CONSIDERIN G the very extensive uature
of the Canvass for a Seat in the East India Direction,
and the shortness of period in which I have had an opportunity
of entering upon that Canvass, and of becoming acquainted
With the great and independent body of Proprietors of East
India Stock, I feel no 'less gratified than encouraged by the
cult of the Ballot on the 23d inst.

I avail myself of this the earliest opportunity to return my
'incere Thanks to the numerous and kind Friends who came
forivard in my favour on that occasion ; and at the same time
gratefully to acknowledge the many flattering assurances I have
received of that additional support on the next Vacancy,
which previous engagements prevented my being honoured
with at the last.

Having already submitted to you the public grounds upon
which I presented myself before you as a Candidate for the
honourable sivation of an East India Director, it only remains
for me now to renew my exertions to secure your confidence
"rid your support, and to repeat my pledge of going to the
Lallot on the first Vacancy.
I have the honour to he, with great respect,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your most obedient and humble servant,
ROBERT T. FARQUHAR.
nrutcn-street, March 24, 1324.
