(10.) MEMORANDUM OF THE EARL OF FALMOUTH.
“March 20, one o’clock.
“Out of respect for the Duke of Wellington, Lord Falmouth has taken to Lord Winchilsea the Duke of Wellington’s memorandum, put into his hands by Sir Henry Hardinge this morning at the War-office, with Sir Henry’s own note thereon. In reply, Lord Winchilsea does not feel himself in a situation to comply with the expectation therein expressed, as to the withdrawal of his public letter. Lord Winchilsea, therefore, desires that Lord Falmouth will decline so doing on his (Lord W’s) behalf.
“Falmouth.”
(11.) FROM SIR H. HARDINGE TO LORD FALMOUTH.
“21st March, two o’clock.
“My Lord,
“I feel it to be my duty, before I make a final communication to your lordship, to ascertain, beyond the possibility of a doubt, that Lord Winchilsea declines to give the reparation which the Duke of Wellington considers himself entitled to receive. I am, my lord, your obedient servant.
Henry Hardinge.”
(12.) FROM LORD FALMOUTH TO SIR HENRY HARDINGE.
