Deering's business, whowas directed, in the time of the war, to provide provisions at Hamburgh, by Sir G. Carteret's direction; and now G. Carteret is afeard to own it, it being done without written order. But by our meeting we do all beginto recollect enough to preserve Mr. Deering, I think, which, poor sillyman! I shall be glad of, it being too much he should suffer forendeavouring to serve us. Thence to St. James's, where the Duke of Yorkwas playing in the Pell Mell; and so he called me to h...im most part of thetime that he played, which was an hour, and talked alone to me; and, amongother things, tells me how the King will not yet be got to name anybody inthe room of Pen, but puts it off for three or four days; from whence he docollect that they are brewing something for the Navy, but what he knowsnot; but I perceive is vexed that things should go so, and he hath reason;for he told me that it is likely they will do in this as in otherthings--resolve first, and consider it and the fitness of it afterward.
