If our friends
decide to risk themselves in that ship, I trust we may get a full consideration
for the risk; and the only full consideration that we can receive is in securing
your services in the Senate. If anything can be done with that iron and marble
body, you may do it. You know how hopeless I think the task, and every time I
come here my notions become more rigid.
