·
James Wilson Hyde
264
"As
for
my
family,
my
father
died
from
two
years,
was
advocate
and
sus-prefect
----
during
thirty
years.
Myself,
at
Paris,
I
have
had
for
scholl-fellow,
several
young
gentlemen,
among
others,
Master
----,
the
son
of
the
great
English
perfumery,
and
others
notable
manufacturers
of
London,
where
I
should
desire
ardently
to
be
clerck,
if,
by
effect
of
your
good-will,
you
give
satisfaction
to
my
claim.
I
am
old
of
twenty-five
years,
and
I
have
satisfied
to
the
military
law.
"I
dare
to
hope,
Master
the
Director,
that,
be
it
as
it
may,
you
will
make
to
me
the
honour
of
answering
what
I
must
expect
of
your
resolution,
and
in
the
same
time
yours
conditions.
"I
am,
Master,
in
expecting,
with
the
most
profound
respect,
your
very
humble
servant."
