Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of the French Revolution From Its Commencement to the Year 1792 If my strict secrecy with regard to myself mould excite doubts of my sincerity, I shall endeavour to prove it, by composing this sketch chiefly of extracts from the most approved French writers, and by advising my readers no to trust to Mr. Burke, or to me, or to Dr. Prieftly, or to Dr. Towers, but to study the French accounts himself, or else to suspend his opinion on this dubious transaction.
