Letter from Governor Tryon to Earl Hillsborough
Brunswick 30th November 1769.
The conduct of the Council has been steadily and uniformly
directed towards his Majestys interest and that of his colony I therefore humbly hope his Majesty's royal favor may be extended to the gentlemen of the Council by giving success to their address which I transmitted with my letter No 30, bearing date the 21st of March 1768, to the Earl of Shelburne, then one of his Majestys principal Secretaries of State, and which I find by your Lordships correspondence was referred to the Lords of the Treasury with a favorable report from the Lords of Trade.
