Mr. Pelham said, “That if he were for trying him by a Board of Officers, he should not be hindered by the Act of Grace, which had been originally his opinion as the properest way of carrying the cause before the King; but that it must now rest here, as all the lawyers were agreed on its being a violation of the general indemnity. That so far from desiring with Fazakerley that the King should remember it, he wished the whole case could be obliterated; and that this might go no further between the two persons, whom he begged to bury in oblivion their private resentments, as the House was obliged to do those of the public.” The Speaker took up this, observed on the harsh words that had passed, and desired they would be publicly reconciled. Sir Henry Erskine answered, “The General gave the offence.” The General replied, “I gave no offence: I said the accusation was false and malicious; does not my very denial of the charge say the same?” The Chair insisted on their engaging to carry this quarrel no further; to which Anstruther answered, “I shall take no further notice.” The Speaker said, “Do you give your honour?” Anstruther; “I do.” Sir Harry Erskine said pertly, “I thought he would have made an apology.” Sir William Yonge interrupted him, and told him, he must not enter into a discussion of what had passed; and the Chair insisted on Sir Harry’s giving the proper assurances; on which Sir Harry at last said dryly, “I give my honour in consequence.” Lord Strange then repeated his Motion for a declaration of the reasons of not proceeding.
