Sir

I now send you by your Brother, Fifteen Hundred pounds, in order to procure the quantity, I wrote to you about: This is all the Money I have by me at present, . If you stand in need of more, shall be able to supply you soon. Shall expect if possible, you will make up what is lacking of the first parcel, and likewise the number I wrote to you for, in my last. Be so good as to inform the Govr or me, from Time to Time, the prospect you have of getting of it.

I shall send to you soon, either by land, or Water, for some of that article to come to this Town.ー

The Money, on Acct of the Delegates, I cannot send now, as the Officers are here waiting for money, and cannot be Suplied, as fast as they want it. I am [&c.]
