for some days past from 42/6 a[nd] 43/6 & comes in pretty fast -
At this time we think as small Cargo might be readily made
up at 44/. perhaps a litte under - How long this may be the
Case is very uncertain, as besides the orders to be yet
completed some West Indians are shortly looked for -
If you wish any thing done in this article your orders
should be speedy and decisive
We have got Mr. Randolph's note settled
& have credded [creddited] you the amounts -
Yrs. [Yours] very sincerely
Hooe & Harrison
