16, 1722-3. To the Right Hon. Lord CARTERET, one of his Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, I BEG your Lordship will look upon this letter less as a presumption, than as an effect of the real respect I owe you. I have long known how to bear my share in such false Re- ports and Misconstructions as no man is exempt from, but there is one that touches me more nearly. I am told (and in Print too by some of the Party Scriblers) that I've been sus- pected of putting that vile thing a Trick upon... you, in being the procurer of your Licence to the Duke of Buckingham- shire's Book. When I had the honor of waiting on your Lordship, I did not dream there was any need of speaking on this Article. But I now think myself obliged to assure you, that I never look'd into those papers or was privy to the con- tents of them, when that Licence was procured by Mr. Barber, to secure his own property. 1 Give me leave, my Lord, to pay you my thanks for your 1 From the Harley Papers. The tary till 1724, when he became Loid letter is a copy, not an original.
