Hook has engagements that will interefere but Thompson undertakes to land him ‘safe at the Tower by seven o’clock on Saturday’. Thompson’s plan is ‘as follows the city of London Steamer leaves the Tower Stairs a little before ten oClock on Thursday with my friends & as I have official business at Woolwich I shall go on board there we stop near Southend at the boundary of the Lord Mayors jurisdiction where we dine & I shall there be joined by the Lords of the Admiralty Mr. Croker i.e. John Wilson Croker 1780-1857 etc but from there I fear they will return to town We proceed to Wrights at Rochester where we sleep Friday morning we shall visit Upnor Castle which is the boundary of my jurisdiction in the Medway & then proceed to Sheerness & view that great naval arsenal Admiral Blackwoods flag ship Vice-Admiral Sir Henry Blackwood 1770-1832 &c. at this place I give a boat to be sailed for by the Fishermen & after this engagement I return to Wrights where I entertain the Port Admiral & His Officers the Corporation of Rochester & the nobility & gentry of the neighbourhood.’ He will return to town on the Saturday by steamer.

Fraying to the lower edge resulting in slight loss of text from the final lines on pages 1 and 7; some marginal tears chips from upper corner very good otherwise. Paper is very brittle. 4 leaves; the signature mark not present on the first leaf but page 5 is signed C; thus possibly part of a larger work. This prints the Lords Protests to the Duke of Marlborough's bill regarding the commissions of military officers and then prints the bill itself. Following are section relating to the election of Peers in Scotland some wording in an act relating to plantations in America a lengthy section on West India Trade and a discussion of the discretionary powers of the Crown and Ministers. The final sections are dated 26 and 29 Martii 1734 as the year was still being reckoned using the old system and so changed on March 25. WorldCat records a book beginning with this identical title but of only 3 pages. unknown
