Since my letter by mr Burwell I have reciev[ed] from mr Gibson an account of the sale of my tobo. he says [3?] hhds were refused, the other very much stained and the quality of the tobo inferior. it averaged 5.82 and deducting carriage it will be 5½ D. on this trial of the Richmond market, we must give it up as to what remains with you, and I will pray you to sell it for what you can, and remit me the money by mail, for I assure you I am sorely pressed even for small sums. I am affectionately yours
