To Messrs. Cary & Montague.

Corotoman Sep. 7. 1738

Sr.

This serves to inclose a Bill of Exchange of my Brother Charles on Mr. Athawes for £58,,10 which I desire you to receive; and also to advise of one I have drawn on you this day to Mr. Richd. Chapman for £48.15.1 which I desire you to pay. I receiv'd yesterday your Letter and Invoice of Goods by Capt. Magier, and as Milstones are not part of them, it will be no great trouble to remove the things that are sent from Nomony to Fotuskey, & from thence to this place. You will observe in the invoice from Sherley, that there is a good deal of Blanketing & Glass set down which perhaps you may think a mistake, some of the same things being now sent in Mr. Forwards ship, yet I desire that Every thing may be sent to me as Directed by that Invoice & by another from this place. It seems that Sr. Yelverton & Crane had not left Portsmouth the 20. of June, being Detain'd there by Admiral Haddocks having taken their men, and if there should be any reason to apprehend any attempt of the Spaniards on Georgia, I cannot suppose your ship will be discharged in any short time. However, if I can hear anything of her before a Liverpool Guinea Man, now at Sherley, is ready to sail I will keep to my promise, otherwise I believe I must send my Tobacco to Liverpool, but I will not determine on this, 'till she take in the last of her Tobacco. I am;

Sirs

Your most hum. Servt.
