The intuited is unspeakable, and grievous to recount;

It is therefore requisite to act in accordance with Christian rule to feel regret at those evils; and to put down the War. But if one proves disobedient to the dictates of Heaven it is to be feared that Heaven will visit us with punishment and who will be able to endure this.

Your honourable County has hitherto barely considered the advantage of peace, with the hope of putting a stop to the Misery of War, and enjoying an open market. Now if this takes place the people may return home and enjoy their own property, and every one of them a livelihood, back to their families and your honourable County may all enjoy the blessing of peace. Is this not far better than to fight for success, laying the land with the bodies of the slain!

I have sent this letter by an officer who will wait for an answer.
