D^o in Favour of Maj^r Thompson - 17266:18:8
33931:10:8

Put into my Hands by Maj^r Thompson - 8332:6
To be advanced by D^o at the Treasury - 8633:8:8
Am^o of stock upon the new Plan - [pound symbol]50897:5:6

In which Sam^l Beal Esq^r, Maj^r George
Thompson & John May are equally ~
interested

P. S. I have not Time to copy the list of Entries for the Att^o
you will therefore send him a copy of the one enclosed. You
can inform him what Part of the land comes under the
Proclamation according to the former construction thereof
and upon these there will be no necessity for entering
Caveats. I am convinced that Caveats will be in this Case
but if they should, I think it would be proper to try the
legality of our Claims, w^ch if adjudged ag^st us may be helped
by taking out Grants upon the Jud^ts of the General Court. If
you should protest my Orders (which God forbid, as my Order
will be effectually destroyed thereby) pray engage some
other Person to advance the Money for me on the best
Terms you can; but I hope there is no Danger of your
refusing, as it is the last and only Time that such an
Opportunity has or probably will offer
