In these trying times, Godolphin appealed to Harley for his hearty co-operation. "...I can't forbear adding upon this occasion," he wrote, "that if we who have the honour to serve the best Queen in the world can't agree upon the proper measures for her service at home, what- ever we do abroad will signify very little." 1 The secre- tary's reply reassured Godolphin for only a few days.
