[Fauquier to Sharpe.]
Wmsburgh July 28th 1760.

I have absolutely nothing left me to do but to ask your
pardon. Knowing nothing of Mr. Fox or even his name but
as told me for that purpose, I had quite forgot the whole
affair: and looking in my Copy Book of Letters I found no
Copy of that Date (not thinking it of consequence enough to
copy) wch together occasioned my last Letter. I well remem-
bered the having mentioned Sr Isaac's papers, being a Subject
the Dr and I had often talk'd over, and thought it must be in
the Letter I sent by Mr Burnaby not finding it among my other
Letters in my Copy Book
If you will excuse this great piece of Impertinence, I have
been guilty of, you will much oblige, Sr
your most Obedt humble Servt
Fran: Fauquier
To his Excelly Govr Sharpe
