<p>D<sup>r</sup> Sir</p>
<p>I receiv'd your favour of 25<sup>th</sup> Decem<sup>r</sup>.<br />and note the contents. In regard to M<sup>r</sup>. Powells<br />Estate, it cannot be known whether there has<br />been a mal Adminstration, untill she settles<br />her Administration Acco<sup>t</sup>., I should suppose<br />he must have died posses'd of enough to pay<br />his debts. It is not in my power to inform<br />you who has sued an extent ag<sup>a</sup>. Wilkins Estate<br />as a Man of honour & veracity I declare to you<br />I do not recollect the circumstances relative to<br />your dispute w<sup>th</sup>. M<sup>r</sup>. Savage.</p>
<p>In regard to my own debt I observe you say if<br />I will give you Security you will wait untill<br />April, I do not know it would be in my power<br />to obtain Security, it is what I have always<br />avoided myself and I should not chuse to ask<br />it of others. I think the proposal I made of</p>
<p>[Page 2]</p>
<p>selling my property and paying you the Bonds<br />is as much as an unfortunate debtor can do for his<br />Creditor, I have ever shewn a disposition in<br />this Affair w<sup>th</sup>. Mess<sup>rs</sup>. Jn<sup>o</sup>. N & Sons to do as far as in<br />my power what I thought just & right, other=<br />=ways I might have availd myself of the law<br />and have put paper in the Treasury. If you are<br />determin'd to pursue this matter with rigour, it<br />will probably defeat your wishes as well as mine<br />w<sup>ch</sup>. is to pay you as soon as I possibly can.</p>
<p>I am w<sup>th</sup>. regard<br />D<sup>r</sup> Sr.<br />Yr Fr<sup>d</sup> & Obed<sup>t</sup>. Serv<sup>t</sup><br />W<sup>m</sup>. Reynolds</p>
