First sentence: IN treating of my peregrinations in His Majesty's service, I shall follow in the track pursued by authors in general; and if, gentle render, you should discover any good reason or just cause (such a one as would influence your candid self) why I should abstain from giving you the proper quantum of information respecting my early education, feelings, hopes, fears, &amp;c. I cry your mercy on these home and sensitive points.
