heard him say any thing to the contrary. I had perfect confidence
as well as he in your acting with zeal and propriety
in the execution of any commissions of that nature you might accept from
either of us: that confidence is not at in no respect impaired
by the result of the commission just mentioned: this is all
I can say, my Brother not being at a distance, and I
no judge of the articles nor having ever seen or concerned
myself about them. I ackn advised you of the arrival
at the time, by a letter which appears to have miscarried.
But if the things themselves had never reached us here, would you have
incurred any risk on that account?

As to the, settlement of an account, current as our's,
I do not see very well apprehend what you wished me to do
for that purpose nor how such an account can well be settled
till we meet, which i hope will be ere many months are
at an end. It is not improbable but I may be set out before
any answer from you can arrive. Though I am not clear about
setting out before the winter roads are formed.

I should be much obliged to you however for my & your accountt
with Sir Rob:t Herries as soon as you can conveniently let me
have it. I want it, and ought to have applied for it before for the
settling of some accounts here. I propose to set out as soon as the winter roads are formed, possibly
before. but do not let this prevent your writing. It is so short, that if you have not
got it. Be pleased also to send the continuation of my account
current till the present time.
