Extract

As Mr. Hume, in his Observations upon the Conduct of King Charles the First and the Duke of Buckingham, seems to imply a doubt of the truth of the assertion, that was made at the time, namely, that Charles ordered the officer, who commanded the naval force employed against Rochelle, in 1625, to surrender the ships to the French Monarch, I take the liberty, first of inserting the passage, extracted from Mr. Hume's History, and, in the next place, of sending you a true copy of the original Warrant of King Charles the First, which warrant is in my possession.
