He will have the money to play with for 7, or 8. Months
and still have time enough to remit to you the
money before the time came for you to pay it

It may be ordered in the following way; Benson
for the purpose of taking such part of the Concerns
as it would not be creditable for him to appear
in, is to be set up here in a kind of Shop, which
has been cheapened for that purpose, a decent
House, The Price for the Fee Simple of which is
about 120 Rubles, about £30—

You may therefore speak of Benson as a Person
whom either on his own account, or on accot. of
his being under the Coll's protection you wish
to serve, and order the Cloths as for him, and in
his name, answering yourself for the
Payment of it in such manner as may be
required.

The Proportions shod be 2/5. of the number of
yards, Green, The Same of White, and 1/5. of Scarlet.
The Green shod be a Grass Green (as you see by
the Coll's Uniform) whether it be this or that Shade
do's not much signify — The Shalloon shod be
Scarlet matching exactly the scarlet Broadcloth
It shod be the finest there is or nearly so.

If it happens that the whole amount shod come
to a little more or less, it will not be material —
I mention this that you may not think it necessary
to break a piece
