The Carryers name is Fryer Todd & he will be at the White Horse without Cripplegate on Saturday the 1 of next Month – Tho this letter is directed for the Col[one]l it is intended to be opend by you & is Committed to your Care, & w[ha]t Expence Accrues upon it pray Charge upon us; It shall be thankfully repayd you, but we have further to desire you will Add to the severall bundles the Inclosed Accots as they are numberd, which will Compleat the whole Vouchers, and upon Mr Maul giving you notice, we desire you will Ask the Col[one]ls leave to go down to Greenwich to Call them over, & after they are so called we desire you’ll ask Mr Maul as from yourself a Rece[ip]t acknowledging to have rece[ive]d the severall vouchers for all the payments charged as made by us from 14 Nov 1736 to 31 Decem last.
