Dear Sir,
I am about building a small house,
and must be obliged to you for the english ma-
terials, which I shall send a bill of exchange
to pay the cost of, so soon as I can get the fa-
vour of you to inform me, by inquiring of prop[er] [per]
sons, as near as may be, what it will amount to.
A bill of the things I shall want is
inclosed, none of which I would have you
[se]nd til I write again.
It is with pleasure I can acquaint you
that your son, who is now at our house
seems to be in good health.
With my best respects to Mrs Norton,
and the rest of your family, I am
Your affectionate friend,
and humble servant,
G. Wythe.
