Captain Squires Compliments to Lord Dunmore, would be much obliged to him for the reading of two Letters he sent him the other night, one directed to Robert Carter Nicholas, the other to Richard Henry Lee, which I will return to your Lordship again

[Dunmore's Reply]
Ld Dunmore Compts to Capt Squire, is sorry he can't send him the Letters he wants, having already inclosed them for the Secretary of State, but wishes Capt. Squire would send him some other letters that came by the same Vessel that he supposes Capt Squire had Mislaid when he sent the rest, which should also be sent home.
