Letter from Charles Jenkinson (1st Earl of Liverpool) of Addiscombe Place to James Maitland, Earl of Lauderdale, 24 Aug 1793. Returning to him a copy of Turgot's Réflexions sur la Formation et la Distribution des Richesses (1788). 'It contains all that Mr Adam Smith has written on the influence of capital and on the commerce of a nation; but M. Turgot develops his principles in a more neat and clear manner by far, than Adam Smith, who appea[rs] to have borrowed greatly from him'.
