Description

Folio 73: James Dormer to Duke of Newcastle. Melodramatic and secret approach of the Infante Dom Francisco to him, and Prince's hope that his secret and confidential servant in London, Pedro Joseph Supico de Morães, `lodging in Suffolk Street' might be admitted to the royal presence. Dormer will be very careful in any further meetings or communications with the prince; but the latter is very pro-British and seems perfectly sincere on this occasion, though `Your Grace must have heard several extravagances of this Prince formerly.'.

Date and place: 1726 Apr 21, NS Lisbon.
