New York 31 July 1786.
Sir, Your letters of the 11 & 24 Instant with your accounts with the State of Maryland and Mr Carleton's Certificate, have been received
As Mr Pierce is gone to the eastward and is not expected this fortnight, I [strikethrough: leave] have to inform you they are sufficient to secure your claims after the 1 August — As your indisposition prevents your personal applications it will be unnecessary to come to New York until your health will enable you to perform the journey.
I am Sir
Your Obdt Servt
