I am sorry that you did not WAIT for our FRIEND, who would have
explained much more than my letter. Pray reflect on the difficulty in
which you place me. I am most anxious to help you, and you render it
impossible for me to do so. Just ask yourself what single act I can do
without your help? None. No one but yourself can sign or explain
anything. If you persevere the consequence will be that the affair will
pass into other hands, and half the money will be spent in law. You are
not doing justice either to yourself or to me. You say you have acted
deliberately; if you have you must have been ignorant of your true
position and the consequences of your acts. Pray reflect. With your aid
anything can be done; but without it nothing.--Douglas, viâ Hull.--_Nov.
