I received in its time the Letter you did me the honour of writing to me by Mr. Hartley: And I cannot let him depart without expressing my Satisfaction in his Conduct towards us, and applauding the Prudence of that Choice which sent us a Man possess’d of such a Spirit of Conciliation, and of all that Frankness, Sincerity and Candour which naturally produce Confidence, and thereby facilitate the most difficult Negociations. Our countries are now happily at Peace, on which I congratulate you to be assured, that as long as I have any Concern in Publick Affairs, I shall readily and heartily concur with you, in promoting every Measure that may tend to promote the common Felicity. With great and sincere Esteem and Respect I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient and most humble Servant
