Gentn

	I Yesterday drew a Bill on you at Twenty Days date payable to the order of Messrs Bell Cookson & Co for One Thousand Pounds which I doubt not will be duly honoured & you will be pleased to place it to the account of Sir Thomas Blackett Barot.  We make a Lead Mine Pay in a few Days which is the reason of my drawing on you for a Larger Sum than I otherwise should have done at this Time.                                I am etc    JEB
