a Note of them agreeable to the list you sent us, it is not in our
power to guess what can have become of them unless the Waggoners
carry'd them to some other W.house, the Hhd of Stephen Carolle

Books in the Note it is inserted S. Carrde and has been
Pickd. the No. is 2466. 715. 110. 605 th youll please enquire of
