[To Gen^l. Hodgdon F.U.B. 9^mo] Boston Feb^y 13 1784 Dear Sir I was the last evening honored with the receipt of your favor of the 21 Ult^o — I thank you most cordially for your attention to my affairs — two things I mentioned to you on which you do not remark one relative to a bill M^r. Ferguson put me drawn on M^r. Petit, I wrote that bill is in the hands of M^r. Carleton I wish to know whether M^r. Plat will or will not honor it — if he will not honor it pray write to M^r. Ferguson to know what shall be done in the matter, perhaps it is that is the best mode and inform M^r. Ferguson of it I also mentioned my wish that you would find me three barrels of Common pom barrel of Superfine flour by the very first opportunity this request [strikethrough: —] permit me to renew and believe me yours Affectionately Hen^d. [undecipherable] Jud^ge. [undecipherable: Patincoln?]
