His brother did not come from London for five or six days, and it was two days more before he got an opportunity to talk with him; but then getting him by himself he began to talk very close to him about it, and the same evening got an opportunity (for we had a long conference together) to repeat all their discourse to me, which, as near as I can remember, was to the purpose following.
Son frère ne revint pas de Londres avant cinq ou six jours, et il se passa deux jours encore avant qu'il eut l'occasion de lui parler; mais alors, le tirant à part, il lui parla très secrètement là-dessus, et le même soir trouva moyen (car nous eûmes une longue conférence) de me répéter tout leur discours qui, autant que je me le rappelle, fut environ comme suit.
