Hon[ou]rd Sir
I reced a Lre pr past Post from Sir Wr. [Calverly], copy whereof is in the other side, to which I know what answer to give.

Hon[ou]rd Sr.
I have your Lre [Letter of the 3[rd]. In answer to which I give it with all submission as my opinion, that no such sum as £5000 can be raised at present out of the stock in hand, without reducing all pays to the pays there were at Sr. Wms. time. The saving £1000 is a moving Inducem[en]t to lengthen them again; but it should be considered whether by doing so, more than twice that many may not be Insensibly l
