Excerpt from The Affecting Case of the Unfortunate Thomas Daniels: Who Was Tried at the Sessions Held at the Old Bailey, September, 1761, for the Supposed Murder of His Wife It ought to be principally attended to in this affair, that his majefiy, whofe regal virtues are fo generally known and acknowledged, cannot appear in a more amiable view, than 1n the attention with which he is faid to have endea voured to difcdver the merits of the interceflion made for this poor convict. An ini'tance which, as it may be deem ed too trivial to engage any particular fhare of princely confideration, yet is certainly one of the truly parental du ties of a Monarch, and will endear him in the hearts of many of his ufeful fubjee'ts, who are beneath caring for the retention of: Guadalupe or Canaa'ai And it is doing jufiice to, the poor fellow, to own, that he feems to retain a grateful, if not a politely expreffed, fenfibility of the great obligation he owes to the royal parent of this his fe cond period of exif'tence. 5 1.
