| 7069 | MINT00420 | Covering letter for a 'Memoriall' relating to various difficulties [MINT00419 (Mint 19/3/177)] | 82 | 38 | 255 | 12 February 1709 | Begs Newton's pardon for troubling him with it but very much hopes he will respond, since 'I must acknowledge I am but a Stranger to what may be proper for me to do on this occasion'. Reminds Newton of Robert Millar's petition [MINT00411 (Mint 19/3/194)] and expresses support for it.||Printed in NC, 4: 530.||Signed by Allardes. | 7/28/21, 3:51 PM | 7/28/21, 3:51 PM | View Edit Delete | ||||
| 7091 | MINT00428 | Personal letter | 82 | 38 | 304 | 9 August 1709 | Apologises for the delay in presenting accounts due to severe illness ('my old indisposition of vomiting blood'). Given the state of his health, many are looking to succeed to his post: asks Newton's support for his proposal that it should pass to his son. Though only sixteen, he could act through a deputy at first, and it would be unfair for Allardes' heirs to be deprived of the money still owing to him as master.||Printed in NC, 4: 541.||Signed by Allardes. | 7/28/21, 3:51 PM | 7/28/21, 3:51 PM | View Edit Delete |
