I have wrote you so fully my sentiments on the subject
of the Stamp Act that I think I need not add more to convince
you that its highly disagreeable to the whole continent & I
have strong hopes that the Parliament will relieve us ~
Inclos'd I send you a small order for Goods to be sent
me by the first opp[ortunit]y Spring Ship in case the Stamp act is to be
repeald, but if the act be not repeald I must desire you will not
send me one article in the Invoice, this is in consequence of the
united Resolution of the Merchants here & the other Trading
Towns.~ & I have wrote to all my Correspondents in London
to the same Effect, if the Stamp act is repeald do let the Goods
be well put up & chargd at the lowest price for which I will
make you a punctual remittance. ~
I wish you health & happiness & am
Gent[lemen]
Your most obed[ien]t Serv[an]t
