Gentleman
This acknowledges the Receipt
of your favor of Capt Scott 26 Sept. & note the Contents. I can't
but say I was something disappointed in not finding an Invoice
inclosed for the Goos I had wrote for, but the Reasons you
have given herefor, as well as for deferring it till the the Spring
Ships are upon sailing. is quite satisfactory & agreeable,
especially as you promise they shall be shipt and finish
Spring.
