Sir Philad^a March 2^d 1784 Yesterday I received your favour of the 26^th Ult^o — having punctually complied with my engagement in sending the Chest and portmanteau to M^r Hollingsworth, you will judge of my surprize when informed they had not come to hand — I immediately wrote to him, and in return received the inclosed, which fully accounts for this disappointment and which I trust will free me from all blame. —— S H Captain Carlisle
