LETTER VI. Hague, Octob. 30. S. N. 68.
SIR,
SINCE my last, I have made the best use I could of the very good Arguments you were pleased to furnish me with in yours of the 13th, for disposing them here towards your Expedient of sharing the Swedish Subsi∣dies, and satisfying them of our fair In∣tentions in waving that other of the General Guaranty proposed here.
I have in a long Letter to my Lord Arlington, given an Account of that Con∣ference, to which I must beg leave to refer you, as containing the Answer both of what came to me from your Hands in that of the 13th, and like∣wise in another of the 16th, which I receive just upon the close of this Pac∣quet, containing the pursuit of the same Counsels you were pleased to transmit to me in your last.

Though I have time left to do no more, yet I would not omit to acknow∣ledge it by this Post, and to continue the Assurances of my being ever as becomes me,
SIR,
Your most Faithful Humble Servant, W. Temple.
