You will observe by referring to my letter of the 18th. ultimo that I made a mistake of £10– in adding together the money I recd. for the principal of your Certificates & that for the Interest—I recd. £169–9–4 instead of £159 as I informed you—& which I did not discover until after I had paid Mr. H.
I give you at foot the amot. of expences paid on Mrs. Keys Tobo.
Yr. Very humble servt.
Geo. Jefferson
