Dear Sir.

In my last I sent you a small Invoice for
Necessaries for Col^o. Phil. Johnson's Estate, of which
I have been prevail'd with to become one of several
Trustees, I desired the favour of you to send them

same Request & will take Care that their Amount
shall be remitted in good Time. I send you Ld
Ch. Montagu's Exch^a. on Edw^d. Bishop Esq^r. for
£50 & Tho^s. Buchanan's on P. Buchanan & C^o.
which you'll be pleased to place to the Credit
of my private Acc^t., when paid. I am D^r. Sir,

Y^rs. sincerely
Ro. C. Nicholas
