I am honored with the Presidents favor of the 12th—at all events, I could not think of leaving Town untill after the 9th & 11th. sepr. have passed over—and the two Notes of $2000 & 1600—were Safely withdrawn—

mean while, I shall endeavour to avail my self of the first favorable occasion, that offers, to pay The Revd. Mr Pryce $4. to purchase 6℔. portable Soup (Chicken or Veal not mentioned)—as well to subscribe to Mc.Corkles paper—

at foot, the President is presented with a/c of my receivals & payments, at B.B. Washington—I inclose also my July a/c store & Cash, Amt $91.41—for this & next Mo: of small Amts. I shall defer, and include in one a/c—

I am happy to learn the President have returned from the fatiguing Journey of Visiting his Bedford Plantation and of plentifull Crops, health, of the good family &ca.

from the Presidents Silence respecting Mr Burwell, I flatter myself, that Gentleman had felt no ill effects from the Thunder Storm, that threatened a relapse of his former complaint—

with every good wish for your health & happiness—I am, most Respectfully, The Presidents—very Obedt: humble. Servant,
