Excerpt from A Critical Commentary on Archbishop Secker's Letter to the Right Honourable Horatio Walpole, Concerning Bishops in America By some intimations in his sermon preached before The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in foreign Parts, February 20, 1741, it appears, that the accomplishment of it had early taken possession of his Grace's affections, and from the tenor of his conduct and conversation from that time to the hour of his death, we may safely conclude, Mr Walpole's Letter must have been a precious morsel to him, as it gave him an opportunity of figuring on his favourite subject before a minister of state. Mr Walpole's Letter, we are informed by an Advertisement prefixed to the Bishop's, was written in the year 1750, to the late Dr Sherlock then Bishop of London. It does not appear that Bishop Sherlock gave any answer to it, either by word or writing. Bishop Secker indeed supposes, "that if "my Lord of London had ever conversed with "Mr Walpole on the subject, since he received "Mr Walpole s Letter, he had doubtless laid every "thing material by way of reply;" yet nothing of this sort appears, and as nothing in writing by way of answer from Dr Sherlock to Mr Walpole was known to Dr Secker, the more probable supposition is, that Bishop Sherlock, convinced by Mr Walpole's Letter of the danger, the folly, or at least of the inexpedience of the project, made no reply at all.
