The favor of your order was handed to us by Mr. Tunnicliffe & during the short time allowed me have used our best exertions to furnish the articles. They are of the best workmanship & we hope they will please. The small pamphlet on Cyder & Perry is out of print & very scarce but we will endeavour to procure you one by the time we may next be favored with an order. Mr. Tunnicliffe has paid us our account as under.
