Your letter of the 30 last month was receved and on it’s arrival I felt much gratification from the Honor your kind Attention showed me. I am glad you are satisfyed that everey thing has been Properly sent, to you, and to mr Brockinbro, but am sorey that Colo Peyton should have been so little attentive to my directions but these are matters of small importanes to the Colo and tharfor do not much wonder, still I hope (and from thee care taken in Packing) I trust they may be Convayed to Bedford safe1 that is with your Commands and attention. The fresh inconvenianc that I suffer owing to mr Brockenbrous delay in not meeting my small Ballances of 66.37 D as you stated would be the case by the time I recved yours (but which has not yet com to hand)2 or can I Acunt for this tardinness in mr Brockinbrough to whome I had wrote to on the same subject on the 5th but I live in hopes to do so before you get this and must say I am warmly sensible of your Friendship and hope to live in your Esteem
