My Lord,
I request your Lordship to permit me the honor of an interview to submit & explain an object I have in view, that of obtaining & transmitting one hundred men to the Cape on the plan, terms & conditions proposed & arranged by His Majesty’s Ministers, & under your Lordship’s sanction to obtain a sufficient grant to carry it into full effect against the time appointed for sailing from England to the Cape for which I will do myself the honor of affording your Lordship at such time as you may please to appoint, by letter to, my Lord,
Your Lordship’s most respectful & obed’t serv’t
