I'd say the Annual Register for 1767 should also be treated as primary evidence: it provides contemporary corroboration for the arrival of the despatch in Lisbon. As such it is not dependent on the text of the despatch itself (whether it still exists or not), but merely records the context of its transmission (although of course anything that involves the selection of 'notable' events or people necessarily involves a certain amount of framing!).
