Dear Sir
I have expected to hear from you by every
opportunity since I left Williamsburg, but have
not yet received a scrape of a Pen; you certainly
have heard from Mr. Morris before this Time
and can by Mr. Murray's Return inform
me what his Sentiments respecting the two
subjects, of back Lands and the Mississippi
Trade are : They are matters which I have much
at Heart, and wish you to come to a Determination
on as soon as possible.
The violent attack of my Disorder prevented
my coming to any Bargain for the 2000
Acres of Land I [mentioned?] to you, but the
owner lives in or near Williamsburg, and
may be seen almost any Day; his name
is John Holt & Mr Charles Taliaferro can inform
you where he may be seen : The purchasing
his Claim at this Time will probably be a
Matter [of?] [Consequence?] as I have an opportunity
of locating it to advantage before
other warrants are issued; I therefore should
be glad you would in my name make the
Purchase, procure a Certificate from the first
Court wch. is held at or near Wmsbg. according to
