Gentlemen,
The moderation and temper with which you resolve to enter into the consideration of the important affairs I have recommended to you cannot but give me the greatest satisfaction, as from these dispositions I entertain the fullest confidence that your wisdom will direct you to such measures as will ensure the common happiness and welfare of all my dominions, which will always be the invariable objects of my care and attention. I receive your condolence on the melancholy event of my brother's death, as a mark of your affection and loyalty. I shall be careful that my conduct shall justify the confidence you so affectionately express in my applying properly such supplies as you may find necessary for the publick service.
