been obliged to confide, (owing to my own interest having compelled me to attend to other business,) have proved neglectful or misused my trust, it is my look out; but an explanation is due to you for this apparent inattention - What has been collected and settled, must be accounted for- And you need be under no serious apprehension on that score. I shall be in North Carolina as soon as I can get there after 6 days hence- Next year I contemplate settling in this state having made some arrangements for that purpose- I intend God willing to connect with the Law, the cultivation of a plantation.
You will hear from me but more probably see me towards the close of the present month, or begining of next - I have not the amount due you with me and could not procure it here without an unnecessary sacrafise, or I would remit as much as would cover the supposed collections for the true amt I do not know

Gentlemen
Yours of the 15th is received to day, (Sunday).
The sealed note agt Harrisson is the smaller one for $400 a bill for which is filed in Franklin Court of Equity agt all the partners; that court being the only place where remedy may be had.
The amt of Ross & Pauleys judgment will be remitted the first convenient opportunity. Smith is ready to pay his securityship; he has requested delay for a few weeks, which I could not refuse.
The money is perfectly safe-
Your other business is all in good train- the delay, have been occasioned by the peculiar situation of the times. I am Gentlemen
with very great respect Your Obt Sert.

Gentlemen
Your last favor requesting further information respecting your suits reached Raleigh while I was on my circuit: On my return I was attacked with a bilious fever, which unfitted me [crossed out words] for the favors of my correspondents: And I dare say you have ^discovered that persons of our profession who deal more in [underline] talking than writing are not such punctual correspondents as correctness in business sometimes might seem to require. I shall endeavor to be more punctual hereafter.
None of your cases in this state under my care are in a doubtful way save one- that is the note against "James Harrisson &Co" - with a [wavy underline] Seal to it. You no doubt are aware, that one partner cannot find another by deed, by which we mean an instrument [underlined] under seal - the only remedy a [underlined] Law therefore, on this note, was agt James Harrisson himself who executed it- He being long since [insolent?], to proceed agt him would to have been to encrease expence- I accordingly have caused
