FORT WILLIAM, 22d May, 1782.

B. No. 5.

I, William Larkins, do make oath and say, that the letter and account to
which this affidavit is affixed were written by me at the request of the
Honorable Warren Hastings, Esquire, on the 22d May, 1782, from rough
draughts written by himself in my presence; that the cover of the letter
was sealed up by him in my presence, and was then intended to have been
transmitted to England by the "Lively," when that vessel was first
ordered for dispatch; and that it has remained closed until this day,
when it was opened for the express purpose of being accompanied by this
affidavit.

So help me God.
WILLIAM LARKINS.

B. No. 6.

To the Honorable the Secret Committee of the Honorable Court of
Directors.

FORT WILLIAM, 16 December, 1782.

HONORABLE SIRS,--

The dispatch of the "Lively" having been protracted by various causes
from time to time, the accompanying address, which was originally
designed and prepared for that dispatch, (no other conveyance since
occurring,) has of course been thus long detained. The delay is of no
public
