With cordial interest I feel the troubles of your Reverence, and the scandals caused by Lord Dom Carlos Thomas. But his lordship's temerity is excused by his want of experience. He could have carried this thing out by giving me, as Primate in India, information of his delegation ; and on his authority being recognised, the whole jurisdiction in the East could have been brought under control at pleasure, and with the greatest ease. But, like the sun behind clouds, so was this prelate obscured by his advisers, who, as is to be supposed by inference from their acts, were not the most circumspect of men. Further, he alienated reasonable persons, owing to the breaking out of these disputes, which scandalize these new plantations of Christianity in the East, and this, too, in the midst of infidels, a thing reproved by St. Paul, et hoc inter infideles. But let us leave on one side past mistakes, and deal solely with a remedy for the difficulties at present existing.
