Description
First edition, 16pp., ink marks on lower blank margin of last leaf, disbound. ìSteele opposed Lord Oxfordís creation of Tory peers to pass the Treaty of Utrecht; in 1719, speaking against the Whig Lords bill to limit the creation of new peers, Steele found himself in agreement with Lord Oxford, and this friendly letter contains the main arguments repeated in his speech in the Commons on the afternoon of its publication.î - Rothschild. Rothschild, 1962.
