Dear and honoured Sir

I have written the inclosed because I feel myself very uneasy least I should be liable to the charge of double dealing but if you do not think a longer silence will be construed to my disadvantage, I confess it appears best that the Letter should not go. You know my only motives, and can best judge of the probability of my return or stay, I therefore beg the favour of you to send it to the post or not as you shall think best. I am your dutifull and affectionate Kinsman
