To Messrs Plumb & Brown Golds[mi]ths                                     Newcastle 30th April 1763

in Forster Lane London 



Sirs/ I reced your favour of the 26th inst. & thereupon examined Sr Wr’s books & found that the difference between your ac[c]o[un]t & mine, of the Balance due from you to him, consists in the two ounces of silver you mention’d & which I had not rectified, but wch I shall now do. & then the Balance will stand as you make it, to wit £322.6s.5d due to him this day. It is long since an Acct. was sign’d between you & Sir Walter; I think it wo[ul]d be right to have it done & accordingly propose, as soon as I can get Leisure, to draw it out & send you. And for the future also shall be desirous of continuing that method, as being the plainest & most satisfactory of all others. I am etc     HR
