Gentlemen	Mr Blackett was favoured with your letter of the 18th March, and is sorry to find that you have not purchased the Quantity of Rye that he Ordered, but hopes by this time that you may have got it, but should that not be the case, he desires that you will immediately purchase it, on the best terms you can & Ship it the first opportunity.
