Dear Sir
I recd your note requesting ℔ 1 Sal ammoniac wich I forwared yesterday in a small package to the care of Mess Saml & J Leatch, that was the first safe conveyance that offered; the river is so low now that no boats can pass—Price one dollar, which I will mention to Messrs G. & Jefferson as you request.1 My best wishes for your health
