Sir,
Your letter of yesterday covering a check on the Bank of the U. S. for 1000 Dolls came safely to hand. On the subject of the receipt I wrote you yesterday.
I shall depend on the Warrant to morrow as many of the acceptances embraced by it fall due the 14th & 15th inst. Thompson is indeed dead, Fermo is better and will probably be raised. The general complexion much as it was, the weather however is fine, & I trust favourable. Please to inform the Secretary the 2 pattern hats, shall be with him to day or tomorrow at farthest,
With esteem, yours now sincerely
