One of the members of the Council died ; and by his own vote, his casting vote as Governor, and the vote of his old supporter from the first, Hastings could now override the malice of his opponents. Sir Philip Francis indeed continued to grumble, to criticise, and to interfere ; but now that he was in a minority, he was harmless. One last quarrel there was. ' I do not, ' said Hastings at one of the meetings, ' trust to Mr. Francis' promises of candour, convinced that he is incapable of it. I ju...dge of his public conduct by his private, which I have found to be void of truth and honour. ' The harsh words were thoroughly justified, but a challenge naturally followed ; and Hastings was im- prudent enough to risk his life in a duel, in which, however, Francis was wounded. The latter recovered, and formal meetings continued at the Council Board ; but Francis soon afterwards returned to England, where, from his seat in the House of Commons, he continued to declaim against Hastings and all his work in India with unabated vigour and unceasing hate.
