Dear Sir,

The 12 Boxes of Tin you ordered, were ford on Saturday last, to care J. & Raphael at Charlottesville—
Very respectfully Dr Sir Yours very Truly

Mr Ro: G. Scott, chairman of the committee of arrangements at York Town, tells me he has recd no reply from you, to the invitation he sent you, a fortnight since, to witness that fete, possibly it has never reached you—
