Sir
The Attorney for the District of Massachusetts1 will prosecute in the case of the Sloop Polly of Sandwich,2 which, as I learn from your letter of the 18th Ultimo, was licensed at your Office.
It is probable he will have occasion for the license bond, which I request you will forward to him upon his application.
I am, Sir, Your Obedt Servant.
