This text is part of:
1 George Grenville, in Cavendish i. 496.
2 Letters of Amherst and his subordinates.
3 Calvert to Lieutenant-Governor Sharpe, February 29 to April 3.
4 That these letters, of which I have a copy, were shown to Grenville, is averred by Allon, Biographical Anecdotes, II. 99. On matters which were known to Lord Temple, Almon's evidence merits consideration. That they are forgeries, appears from their style, from their exaggeration, from their want of all authentication, from the comparison, freely and repeatedly allowed by successive ministries in France, of all the papers relating to the conquest of Canada, or to Montcalm. The fabrication and sale of political papers and secrets was, in the last century, quite a traffic.
5 Debate in the house of Lords.
6 J. Mauduit, 11 February, 1764.
7 Jasper Mauduit's letter to the Speaker of the louse of Representatives of the province of Massachusetts Bay. London, 11 Feb. 1764.
