Failings, Excuse my Partiality and render him the Justice he
shall deserve: I ask no more nor will you return us less.
F. B.
The Approaching Completion of the Divisional Lines be-
tween my Province and Pensilvania will mark the Era of my
Dominion nor do I wish to see a better Monument raised to
your Proprietor's Memory than that event, by which, I hope
perpetual Tranquility is Restored and secured to my Province,
even though the Proprietor's private Interests should have
suffered by it.
Gentlemen of the Lower House.
Your passing the Journal of Accounts has given me the
greatest Satisfaction. Be assured I shall always be as Tena-
cious of your Right as my own nor can I receive a more agree-
able Summons than to Meet you at the Foot of the Throne, to
Submit our Reciprocal Claims. This Derniere resort I esteem
the first Jewell in my Lesser Diadem as there can be no Op-
pression without redress, and if we Differ, Our Misapprehen-
sion will be those of Friends, alike open and Desirous of Con-
viction.
Gentlemen of both Houses.
Your Councils have flowed with and been regulated by so
much Wisdom, Prudence, and Temper, that I have only to
recommend it to you to persevere in the same laudable Steps
you have so long trod. If any further Progress can be made
in the Improvement or Addition procured to the Happiness of
my Province do you prepare the Plan and my Encouragement
shall not be wanting.
