Wedn. Decr. 9th 1778

I have rec'd your letter — but no parcel by the Diligence
Huzza! Curtis for ever!

I have been to Barker's - unfortunately his stock of every thing
is almost nil - I have been able to scrape together but 5 shirts
ready made with promises for 13 more by Friday night — These
5 are plain at 15s — if ruffled they would have come to 18s. The
13 I have order'd to be ruffled. I have got 4 Cambric stocks at 3s 6d
4 muslin do at 2s-8d. I am to have in all 6 cambric at 4s - 6 do
at 3s 6d & 6 muslin at 2s. 8d.

Why Barker not to wash the Shirts? he says he can get
them washed at a minute's warning.

Those I have I shall pack off to Mrs Green tomorrow at
7 when she comes to light the fire.

I shall wait impatiently for your letter tomorrow which
is to determine me with respect to a multitude of these matters

Wilson is sitting opposite me & is well pleased -

Swede has been very ill with a disorder that has threatened
him vehemently & still continues to threaten him in some degree
with the loss of a leg - If he should lose it it will not hinder
him he says from going to Petersburgh

Davies comes not till tomorrow
