By M:r Gerald Aungir who departed this place y:e 27:th Late at Night I addressed a few Lines unto you advizeing you of y:e Disposall off S:r Geo: Smiths 6: Gunns w:th out Carriadges (there being non Delivered mee) the through hast ommitted to intimate y:e price they weare sould for XXX [could be Mms [(abbreviation for Mahmoudis)] 14:X:ss [it is “x” in the manuscript, not a number I cannot read, presumably this is “x” for “ten”] p Quintall w:ch is 1/7 more than o:r p:o weight; Tomorow morneing Sig:r Jo:X de Prado (who bought them) hath promised mee to acco:t w:th mee for theire Weight they being not as yett weighed off unto him; & when that is done I shall apply my selfe to invest theire proceeds in y:t w:ch may prove most advantageous to theyer proprietor.

The Lepard sett sayle thios morneing a bout 9: of y:e Clocke from the Agoada, & y:e ffactors gave Notice of a shipp being in

[f.10]

I know not of any thing else w:ch might require an enlargem:t & therefore w:th y:e presentation of my most humbble service unto yo:r acceptance I Conclude & remaine.

Right Worp:ll S:r
Yo:r most humble servant
