Sir
Agreeable to your Notice which I received with extream concern
I have here delivered in to you an estimate of the loss & damage I shall sustain
on being turned out of my house and business I trust you will on the perusal
of it be convinced of the reasonableness of every charge herein stated as I declare on
my honour to the best of my knowledge and judgement I have no way exaggerated
before I close I beg leave to say a few words by way of explanation on the above
Estimate the 1st, 2d, 3d, & 4 th I presume needs none as the necessity of them speaks
for themselves with respect to the 5th I have to observe that my son is now gone
again in the service of his King and Country and I being a lonely Widow he left me
settled in this House as a little living for me in my Old Age he having previously formed a
connection I had no doubt of being able to live comfortably and pay every one their due without
being any incumbrance to him but owing to this sudden turn of fortune my future expectations is entirely done away and
I shall be obliged to seek a new Establishment which may not take place for some time with respect to the 6th January
to observe that I cannot get any of my Debts in as they plainly tell me they are obliged to leave their situations &c and that I may look
for my money if I should have neglected stating any thing that lends to my advantage or that would be more satisfactory
satisfactory to you or my Lords Commissioners I trust it
will be attributed to my ignorance relying on your & their Lordships liberality to me in this unfortunate business I remain Sir with due respect your Oblig d &hble Servt..
