Dr Sir

Having occasion for five hundred dollars to pay a debt in Philada1 I have taken the liberty of sending thither a draft on you for that amount payable on the 5th. of July next, which I must ask the favor of you to satisfy out of the proceeds of my Tobo. if other means be not put into your hands for the purpose.

J.M

Draft (DLC).
