<br /><p>Dear Sir;</p>
<p>If you will be so good as procure for me a well built<br />handsome post-charriott, I will remit the price of it in<br />due season. Something like the inclosed device may be<br />put upon it. Of the several articles I have lately wrote<br />for, the glasses, balls and other apparatus, such as are<br />used by the house of commons in balloting, and the du-<br />plicates of our journals, I am most anxious about, and<br />earnestly desire your particular attention to. The jour-<br />nals especially would be of considerable advantage to<br />me. I am</p>
<p>Dear Sir,<br />Your sincere friend and<br />well wishes<br />G Wythe<br />Williamsburg<br />Aug. 8. 1768.</p>
