To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I have taken a little tenement about four miles from this office, where I live as much as possible. In the country ever3rthing pleases me : in town nothing.
Tilghman is well. He leaves us in September, and for ever. Fitz- patrick, he, and I, dine together to-day. Whenever we meet, we drink your health, and join in lamenting the condition of the times.
Adieu. P. F.
A letter of June 18, 1771, from a servant, announces to Francis that his father, at Bath, ' was yesterday taken with one of the usua...l paralytic seizures; it has very much affected his speech ; but this day I have hopes of his surviving this attack.' From several preceding letters, and from his fi-agment of autobiography, it appears that Francis was at this time in a state of much dejection and disappointment as to his prospects. His pecuniary loss from the failure of his hopes of war with Spain may have contributed.
He had also, in combination with Calcraft, fastened his hopes of preferment in the pubhc service on the advent to power of Lord Chatham, or of the opposition under some other leadership, and began to despair of the defeat of the Tory administration.
