Jablouskis tico letters to her ; but she was in haste. 

 I left them with her, which she promises to shew to 

 Mr. Secretary/ St. Johns, which I pressed her to 

 do, in order that he might give dispatch to a com- 

 mission for Mr. Hales, who I told her was in both 

 these letters earnestly recommended to that employ- 

 ment by Dr. Jablouski, as being well known and 

 much esteemed, both by Ursinus and Baroti Printz, 

 and also the King of Prussia himself. Tuesday, 

 April 3d. Before twelve o'clock I weiit to the Queen; 

 but she was so busy, I did 7io busi?iess with her, but 

 only put her iti 7nind of Dr. Jablouskis letters, to 

 be put into the hands of Secretary St. Johns ; and to 

 speak to him upon Mr. Hales affair. As I came 

 out, I spoke likewise to Secretary St. Johns, who was 

 there, and told him what I had said to the Queen, 

 and desired him to speak to her about these matters, 

 which he said he would." 



There was another thing about this time well 

 concerted for the furtherance of the main de- 

 sign, viz. that her Majesty should grant a sum 

 of money to the Prussians, to buy ground for 

 the erecting a church here in London for a 

 Prussian congregation. She promised a thousand 

 pounds, and he having prepared her for the admitting 

 their petition, waited upon her with it on Tuesday, 

 April 17, she said she would speak with Mr. Hur- 

 ley, and so toe left it with her.
