GOOD NEPHEW,
I spake to old George this morning, who told me that your gelding might very well be led home, but lookinge further into your letter I founde you desired directions to use him when you had him at home, after which I presently sent up to him to his house, but he was gone from home so that I cannot send you any other directions but to use him as a sick horse, that is to keepe him warme and give him good macche to cherish him. I thancke you for your ill newes. So
I am
Your affectionate uncle
JAMES OXINDEN
