Partition Treaty, Report of the Conference about:
The Order being read, for resuming the Debate upon
the Report of the Conference Yesterday with the House
of Commons:
A Paper was delivered to the Clerk, and read, as
followeth; (videlicet,)
E. of Portland's Paper, concerning his negotiating it:
"At the Beginning of the Summer of the Year 99,
when I was in Holland at my Country-house, and
when the King would have me be concerned in the
negotiating of this Treaty with the Emperor, the
French King, and The States; being very unwilling to
meddle with Business again, from which I was retired;
before I would engage myself, I advised with my
Friends in Holland, and writ into England, to Mr. Secretary, Vernon as my particular Friend, whether it was
adviseable for me to engage in any Business again; to
which Mr. Vernon answered in Substance, "That this
would not engage me but for a little while; that I
being upon the Place, and generally acquainted with
the Foreign Ministers, it would be easier for the King,
and properer for me to be employed in it than any
body else, that must be otherwise sent for on Purpose."
After Debate;
The Question was put, "Whether the Paper that
has been read shall be communicated to the
House of Commons?"
It was Resolved in the Affirmative.
The Earl of Portland being desired by the Lord Sommers, with the Leave of the House, to declare, if he
pleased, "Whether the Lord Sommers's Name was
mentioned in the Letter he received from Mr. Secretary Vernon?"
L. Sommers, not mentioned in Secretary Vernon's Letter to him.
The Earl of Portland declared, "That, if he had remembered any such Thing in the Letter, and had not
inserted it in the Paper which he had delivered to the
House, he should have thought he had deceived the
House."
Cornwall versus Williams.
Upon reading the Petition of Colonel Henry Cornwall;
shewing, "That the Seventh Instant is appointed for
hearing of his Cause, whereto Elizabeth Williams Widow, and Elizabeth Williams an Infant, are Respondents; and that the Petitioner's Counsel are out of
Town, and in the Circuit; and praying the Hearing
may be put off until the Circuits are over:"
It is ORDERED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, That this House will
hear the said Cause, by Counsel, at the Bar, on Saturday
the Twelfth Day of this Instant April, at Eleven of the
Clock in the Forenoon.
After some Time, the House being moved, on the
Behalf of the Respondents, "That the foregoing Order may not stand; it being, as they conceive, prejudicial to them:"

on either Side to that Matter, on Monday next, at Eleven
a Clock.
