Samuel Hodgdon Esq^re Superintendent of Military Stores Philadelphia [frank signature: undecipherable] Trenton New Jersey Septem^r 12. [132] D[ea]r Sir, Inclosed I transmit to you (accompanied with a letter) a bill for two hundred dollars, drawn on you by L. Langham, in favor of my friend M^r. William Taylor of Baltimore. As it will save both time and postage if the money was forwarded immediately from Philadelphia — I shall esteem it a singular favor, if you would be so good as to remit the amount of the bill to M^r. Taylor, either in a post note of the Bank of the United States, or in a draught on the Office of Discount & Deposit at Baltimore, and advise me thereof. Pray can you inform me where M^r. [undecipherable] Vaughan resides at the present moment? Perhaps you may learn at the Post Office. With sincere wishes for your safety amidst the dangers which surround you I am D[ea]r Sir, Yours respectfully Edward Jones Samuel Hodgdon Esq^re
