The author feels confident that he is still due payment for his service as an Officer in the service of his country. He asks that the bearer of this letter be given any Certificates that the recipient feels are due him. The Auditors sent him the amount he deserved but the Certificates were kept from him.
please send with the bearer any Certificates which I am confident were made out for & sent by the Auditors which were sent here, but they were so ungrateful to retain from me, which I think I richly deserve
