Whispers of Treason and Forgeries Reveal London Conspiracy
A witness recounts Rogers's July journey from London to Yorkshire and France, detailing secret ties among Grimaldi, Choffeul, Guiznes, Pute, Halifax, and Mansfeld. He claims a 5000 pound transfer via the Genoa Bank to Lord Bute and exposure of further sums tied to a late convention. The tale alleges plots against the king, money divided among conspirators, and false letter blanks. He attempts to swear an affidavit before several officials, but is repeatedly blocked or refuses.
