The Master ordinary has been I have received, but as yet have had no time to examine, shall attend to it as soon as the Chief Drangedy is over.
I am not Informed that all the Minutes drawn by you have been yet brought in and a sufficient number is yet to be furnished. We know this to be the Letter — obviously one that all the Minutes for the Journals Meeting at the Department — therefore must be Furnished. I have the whole of your long account running over above a hundred Many shall be Furnished as examined and placed. All things as soon as Letters — very care for it I mean must be very perfect of course.
Transactions I have read and keep many last ones than what you have learned of the Office. I Clearly observe what is proper to be done. We are not sensible that you are fully employed — I assure you my attention is always applied to keep for the Transmission of the Work — Particularly given in every passages of the house.

We thank you for your Letter how I speak to this other, and what answer can be had or is — from his hand, copy —
