Should you intend to get any fish for the negroes this Summer, I think it would be best for them, could they get them during Harvest, as I believe their Stock of meat has been consumed long Since, and fresh meat does not agree with Labourers in very warm weather so well as salt provisions, I have received 100 dollars in part for the wheat, there is 43. dollrs and     cents due which I expect to get in a few days, which will nearly pay all my old debts that have been pressing, but there are others due to morrow, which will be equally pressing, I mean my assumsetts for Bishop, and the Horses1 which I informd mr Randolp of, and he was good enough to promise2 to provide the means to enable me to meet them, as these People live in the western Country & a desappointment would be a serious injury to them, we have planted Some Tobo and shall plant the next season more than ½ our crop, our plants have grown rapidly for few days past I am Satisfied now, that we shall have the greatest plenty in good time, we are all well, except some old complaints, Billy is still out, he and his comraids, takes a shoat or a Lamb every day or two from us.   yrs with the Highest Respect
