<p>D<sup>r</sup>: Sir</p>
<p>I duly received your Favour of 28<sup>th</sup>. Ult<sup>o</sup>. and<br />as you requested, i write to M<sup>r</sup>. Grymes at Richmond. He<br />informs me Doctor Smith has declined purchasing<br />your Property in York. to take £300 for the part<br />of it which I mentioned to you in my last, would be sub<br />-jecting you to a Loss: but from M<sup>r</sup>. Reynolds pre-<br />sent situaltion, however well he may intend, I dont<br />see how he is to discharge the Ballance of his bond; there<br />-fore under this Idea, taking His Houses &c<sup>a</sup>. as you<br />have done, was better than getting nothing - or it would<br />have been an unadvisable purchase ~ I shall wait<br />your further Directions on this Subject -</p>
<p>When will it be in your Power to make <sup>me</sup> fur-<br />-ther Assignments on account of M<sup>r</sup>. Relph &c<sup>a</sup>.<br />for they are impatient to be paid -</p>
<p>I shall be obliged to you to remit me the<br />small Ballance due to Mess<sup>rs</sup>. W<sup>m</sup>. Anderson & comp<sup>a</sup>.<br />P acco<sup>t</sup>. handed you last April -</p>
<p>D<sup>r</sup>. Sir your most obed<sup>t</sup>.<br />Benj<sup>n</sup>: Day</p>
