Memorialist appeals dismission as unfounded in service history
The memorialist protests that the dismissal from his majesty's service is baseless and linked to a November 28 1761 letter to Samuel Martin Esq. He asserts money and effort were spent leaving Bremen with family to present these facts and hopes for examination by the board. He cites a public declaration by Mr Pownal claiming harm from his writing.

Satirical Note on Sir Francis Dashwood's Tax Struggles
A 1763 snippet laments Sir Francis Dashwood over taxes on wine and cyder, vowing not to touch his cider until he has gauged its contents. The writer mocks Dashwood as ignorant in office while praising the grape and apple, then shifts to praise for an ingenious correspondent who sent a letter.
