Note 136 — Chapter VIII · TRAVEL AND INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIPS, 1788-89-90

This letter is interesting as written by the last representative of that unhappy country in England. We read in Knight’s History of England, vol. v., that, on the reassembling of Parliament after the partition of Poland no allusion whatever was made in the House of Commons to that event. The final partition treaty was signed in 1795 by Russia, Prussia, and Austria.
