My dr Br
I thank you for yr Lre from Richmond Town which is the only one I recd since Brown arrived. For Heavens sake take care of Brown & Norwood & get them loaded & get what remittances made that you can before the Flame burst out which we expect to hear of every day from N. Engd. The Papers &c sent herewith will show you our sentiments here. The parcel of prints & history of Cavallier you will distribute quickly, particular the history in the back Country. My head aches greatly. Take all the possible care you can of my affairs. Our best love to Greenokes & believe me most Affecly &cー
