This black was sent over as a present to the late Lord Halifax, as a grateful acknowledgement for his having interested himself so warmly in the cause of the two young African Princes, who were here in the last reign. When Lord Halifax was Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, he made this Cudjoe state trumpeter, which place he still enjoys. |
