"It is difficult to see how [the ex-Bashaw] should situate himself at any greater distance from Tripoli, unitl he hath the means of removal, Malta is more convenient than Syracuse for communication with Tripoli, and he hath removed thither for that object and to avoid domestic afflictions . . . ." Barker attempts to obtain a pension for the ex-Bashaw. Scribal copy bound together with GLC 2794.118, .120-.124, .128-.133, .135-.145 and .147-.151. (Letter #1 in bound volume.)
