ERSKINE
(Hon. Henry, 1746-1817, Scottish Lawyer and Wit, Lord Advocate, 1783 and 1806-1807)
Autograph Letter Signed to 'My dear Kieth' [sic],
Captain the Hon. George Keith Elphinstone (1746-1823, Admiral, 1801, 1st Baron Keith, 1797, 1st Viscount 1814), the Prince of Wales's Secretary for Scotland, saying that "Not finding Mr Blane", (Andrew, 1744-1839, Writer to the Signet, 1774, Sheriff-clerk of Ayrshire, 1815-1821, eldest son of Gilbert Blane of Blanefield) "willing to accept of the offices of Depute Secretary and D[epute] Keeper of the Signet which you were kindly pleased to offer for the purpose of accommodating Matters", Erskine must "in Justice to myself & I think ... to his Royal Highness ... intreat you most humbly to lay before his R.H. the inclosed Memorial [not present]", showing that "the promise founded on by Dr Blane", (Gilbert, Andrew's brother, 1749-1834, from 1812 1st Baronet), "was most improperly obtained ... and should not be fulfilled", seeing that the Prince had commissioned Erskine to dispose of the post "which I had actually done before his Royal Highnesses promise was obtained", Keith must judge whether such a promise ought ever so "affect his R. Highness mind" as to command Erskine to fulfil it, but "there is no Command of his that I shall not cheerfully obey ... especially in the Execution of an Office I owe to his favor", subscribing himself "With the most anxious attention to his Pleasure Honor & Interest ...", 3 sides 4to, Edinburgh, 2nd March
