Soon after this, I was told by Sir T[homasJ Ffrankland], Bart. , that his brother, who held some office under government, * and was much with the King George III. , whose curiosity Avas insatiable as to everything relative to the arts had got one of these bank notes. Sir T. F[rankland]'s brother showed it to the King, who greatly admired and approved of it. About two years after this, in the year 1801, Samuel Thornton, Esq. , of the Bank of England, wrote to me respecting this note, and wished ...to know how it was executed, and whether it was done on wood or copper, &c. I was strongly advised, by a friend, not to give the gentlemen of that bank any information whatever about my plate ; " for, " said he, " as soon as they know the nature of what they are enquiring after, you will hear no more from them. " I did not take his advice ; and, after a deal of trouble in writing to them, and stating amongst many other matters, that, "though my plate would do well for country banks, it would not do for the great number wanted for the Bank of England, " the business ended in nothing.
