Mr. Monroe before he left this Country obtaind a loan of some money from the Bank of Alexa. for which I became his Indorser.

What is to be done I know not—the Bank would probably take my own notes with an approvd Indorser, which if nothing better could be done I must submit to. Understanding that you had had some communication with Mr. Deblois of this place concerning this debt, I have taken the liberty of requesting you to inform me whether you know of any appropriation made by Mr. Munroe for this debt, or what prospect of relief I may have for my indoresment [sic]. I proposed to Mr. Deblois that I should give my note and that he should indorse it, but I understood that he declind doing this, unless he was requested by you to do it. The debt now due is $2250. With much respect I am your Obt. Sert
