TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
AVacancy having occurred in the East India
Direction, I respectfully solicit the favour of your Votes
and Interest, that I may be appointed to the honour of filling it.
When I first declared my intention of offering myself to your
notice, as a Candidate for the Direction, my hopes were founded,
solely, upon the experience which you have had of my conduct,
as a Proprietor. I should not, however, do justice to the un-
siomMonly kind and flattering reception which I have met with,
if I did not, now, feel confident that, by a ccutinsation of such
kindness, I shall be placed in the honourable situation to which I
aspire.
I am still impressed with the importance of that situation, even
in common times. But at tins time, with our Charter nearly ex-
piring, the Trust is of much more than usual magnitude. lithe
part, which I have publicly taken in the Court of Proprietors,
should induce you to believe, that lam qualified to discharge the
peculiarly important duties of a Director, I request the honour of
your support.
I cannot conclude this Address without expressing my sincere
concern at the loss which we have all sustained, by the deathof Sir
William Bensley. 1 have long known and valued him ; and, upon
many occasions, I have experienced his friendly disposition to,
wards me. If, by your favour, 1 shall be appointed to fill the
vacancy wilich his death has occasioned, i shall bear io mind and
endeavour to imitate his many excellent qualities, and, partione
larly, his inflexible integrity.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, with much respect,
Your most obedient, and very humble Servant,
Strand, Dec. 19, MI. RICHARD TWINING.
