I shall send you a Copy for your Information— If you compare my Letter with the Govrs governors Answer you will see how his Excellency stands affected towards his Secretary. From what I stated, the Govr cannot be ignorant of his Secretary’s Secretarys Conduct, had he not been well acquainted with that before— As much as it is possible I will live in Peace— but I know there will be nothing but war— I think it a little hard, that the Govr will not allow me to retire from the Colony; or to have a little Quietness— I would be satisfied with either— Had I committed any Crime, there would then be a Cause— As yet none has been proved against me and I trust never will— All Power, and Influence the Enemy has upon his Side— But hitherto he has not succeeded to his wish— I shall feel it to be my imperious duty to watch and pray, that I may be able to stand, and to do all to stand— It may be prudent to take no public notice of these Letters, unnecessarily, unless any thing is publickly said— Perhaps my Letter to the Govr may prevent that use from being made of Mr Campbells Letter, had I been silent. I shall leave the whole to your wisdom and Prudence— and remain Dr Sir Yours very sincerely Saml Marsden Revd J.
