I have already wrote you this Evening & as it is now past the close of the Mail am in hopes to convey this by the Stage Driver. Inclosed is as accurate Statement of the Stocks standing on my Books as the time would permitt the Books not being posted up. Part of the Account are taken from original entries & therefore subject to error. But I believe it is not far from the truth.
