on my arrival here I told Mr Woolsey of our going to unload the 92, & that the Honourable Council of Safety wanted to see him on the same occasion respecting the Brig he loaded, when he said he woud be damned if he woud go near you without writen orders, and that you shoud not take a barrell out of the Brig, before he knew on what terms, &c &c, this is a matter that dont concern me, nor should I mention it, had not, you desired me to advise Mr [William] Lux & Woolsey of your orders respecting what was done with our Schooner, and as from my Verball ordrs cant see Mr Woolsey, thought best to advise you his answer to me that you might write him; as the Cargo lays, Still in her, and as to Mr Lux I heare he went down to you last evening. ー I am busy geting the Warehouse lofts ready for the whole of your produce in these three Vessells; where you may depend on all possible care being taken of opening doors & windows every day, and picking out what of the flour seems most warm for the immediate bakeing, the 92 is all ready to begin to discharge, but is now a drissling rain that are afraid to open the Hatches, but tomorrow shall be at her discharge or as soon as it holds up fair and shall then begin on bakeing the flour up with two ovens, but if you are in a hurry for the Bread shall get to work with the other, which three ovens can turn out a great quantity of Bread in a day, of which you'l please to advise me, and shoud be glad to hear from you as often as convenient for my government, and shall endeavour in every instruction you Honour me with, to give you intire Satisfaction both as to my Care & Charges which hope will merritt your aprobation. beg you'l send me a Manifest of the 92s Cargo that I may know Whither it turns out right that is
