consequence of general orders given by Mr Henderson,

£300 abovementioned which on his behalf I claim. I also<add>[+] £200 which on his behalf I claim.x

hand this generous man, calling to h as if to [+] acknowledge the receipt of your account in which setting against his charge the him in debtor upon the £3.10.81/2
heap coals of fire upon your head, has been
writing to you for no other purpose than to
inform you of an opening which justs

to him pretty freely an on pain of my giving

till you show'd what I deemed a proper
sense of his past services: however, b havinalso had
