as the pleasure to address
as a Candidate for the Honour of being one of your EXe-

presented myself to your adoption on the present Vacancy.
As it is, suffer me to return you my most unfeigned Thanks
_tir the unifoirm encouragement and polite preference which
you have se kindly manifested towards me, and to assure you,
-with equal sincerity; that be my situation what it may, it
will ever be the liveliest Eiride of my life effedually to con-
tribute to the prosperity of your affairs,. and cordially to testify
my gratitude towards you, no less for your intended: Confi-
dence at Home, than" the past Benefits which dtsrived
from your Service while I .hadthe Honour to be employed
Abroad.

. Ladies and Gentlemen,

Your ever obliged, and faithful !nimble, Servant,
