2377. EDEN (William), Hatred of the United States.—[further continued].

Mr. Eden sets out in a
few days for Madrid. You will have to oppose
in him the most bitter enemy against our
country that exists. His late and sudden elevation
makes the remembrance of the contempt
we showed to his mission in America rankle
the more in his breast.—
To William Carmichael. Ford ed., iv, 453.
