and that Gentleman's reply

As the error is entirely M. Thornton's,

and I have no reason to doubt Mr. Watson's

assertion that he has no

funds of M. Thornton's in his hands, I trust that

Your Grace will sanction the arrangement I proposed in my Despatch No. 300 of 20th

ultimo, and allow the account to be

adjusted

on Mr. Thornton's return to the

Colony in six weeks' time, supposing

him to have made no

4.

refund in England.

In the event of accident, it

will be as

competent to this Government,

at that date, as now, to have recourse to the bond which Mr. Watson

has

given.

I have the honor to be,

My Lord Duke,

Your Grace's

Most Obedient Servant,

Molinom
