Tuesday. the 31st. a week after his setting sail. At
landing he had the good fortune to meet with two Dutch

from Helvoetsluys: and his last letter is dated from the house
of one of them at Dort. The next day (Sept. 4) he was

I heard on Thursday from my Father at Imley Park:
all well. He had then received my Brother's first Dutch
letter, which I sent him: and has by this time received
the 2d.
I hope this will find yourself and family in good
health; being with the gr sincerest affection and gratitude
Dear Sir
