Sir
I received few days ago the letter you honoured me wit bearing date the 5th inst, I am very sorry to find that Jno Grieya has received upon a forged power of attorney the depreciation of Adam Sybert alias Syfert specially as the poor ma is in the greatest distress. Mr Nicholson has informed me that the same Greiya had done the same time in other circumstances, and it is expected
expected he will be prosecuted.
By Mr Nicholson's note herein inclosed it appears that Hugh Bradley was a serjiant of the 5t Penna Regiment. I will be greatly obliged to you for informing me of what may be coming to him.
I am Sir Yo
P D Barbeuduplessis
PP Griffih Jones wishes to know why 20 bushels of corn @ 6/6 specie are paid in a certificate only 56/3
