24 August 1802, Cowes. “Our Crop of Corn is half saved in these parts & in exceeding good order from our having had no rain for these three weeks & we only want a Continuance of favorable weather to secure abundance. Our prices are now nominal, there being little grain of any Sort at market.… Every thing goes on as usual. I pay due attention to your Circular of 1st Augt 1801 & the papers it refers to.”
