M^r. John H Norton

Sir

Your Letter in answer to ours of
the 5^th of Apr. promised an immediate payment
of your balance for which purpose you say the
produce was at Market and should be sold even
at a low price we are therefore at a loss in not
finding the remittances at hand before this time

Your Hle Serv^ts
