Sirs

I writ to you by Cap. Tho. Bolling but I believe I then forgot to let you know that I & my brothers had drawn on you some time in April last for sixty six pounds six shilling & ten pence payable to Mr. John Tucker, to be charg'd [charged] to my fathers estate. This now serves to supply that neglect, & to acquaint you that I have drawn on you for my small ballance [balance] of twelve pounds, twelve shillings & four pence to Mr. Edward Athawes, which I desire may be paid.

I am

Sir

Your Most humble Servant
