The Death of Mr. Wheatly, to whom the precious Letters of Messieurs Hutchinson and Oliver were addressed, hath providentially proved highly serviceable to Great Britain and her Colonies. Had that Gentleman not obliged us by his Departure to the Regions unknown, the infamous Designs of a treasonable Cabal might have been carried into Execution; at least, the Americans would not have been able so clearly to discriminate between their secret and avowed Enemies. It is now evident, to Demonstration, that a fatal Blow was aimed at the Liberties of America; they were, in Mr. Hutchinson's Stile, to be abridged.
