" He could scarce finish the sentence, bursting into tears, in spite of his efforts to suppress them, and with difficulty collecting himself enough afterwards to add, "I wish to be per mitted to assure him, I did not act under this impres sion, not submitted to a necessity imposed upon me, as contrary to my own inclinations, as to his orders. " His request was readily complied with, and he wrote the lett...er annexed, with which I dare say you will be as much pleased as I am, both for the sentiment and dic tion.

He made a second application by letter, in concise but persuasive terms.
