Young Francis attends Mr Fuller's Academy at Lothbury then is clerk in house of Boehm and in the house of Temekett (Samuel Touchet?), a "considerable London merchant" (Hidy book, p. 7). it is an object lesson when Tuchet suicides/fails in 1773 is that due to the Fordyce failure?

Martin, "The Grasshopper" in Lombard Street. London, 1892. In Oct 1785 (Hidy p 489 note 50, Baring is considering helping France establish a rival to British EICo, but is dubious about it, so by now, Barings and Coutts both advise govt on finance and dealings).
