Hillsborough July 22nd 1772.

Dear Sir.

The bearer Tom comes for the Honey if
you have procured any, I have likewise ordered him
to bring home a bag of aples the same sort that [Creff?]
brought last sunday, they are for drying therefore beg
you will let Mr. Martin take the trouble to see
that the right sort is got, and that the Boy return
without loss of time. My child is much
better & I hope is in a fair way of recovery.
with this you'll receive a Letter from Halifax, wch.
presume is from Mr. McHarg, also a copy of
Johnson & Thackston's acct. with Archer Harris,
Balance £3.4.8 which please to receive for
them. God bless you with success & happiness,
and believe me to be with sincerity.

Dr. Sir.
