Sir

I am assured by a Person who knows the thing very well that wee are greatly defrauded by Mrs Wetherby in our dues of Risby Grove, for they carry away oar both by night & day of which Mr Rudd knows nothing at all, as I am informed, you must go up to Risby, & enquire how that acco[un]t stands; they are obliged to show you all their Accounts from the beginning; by which you will find how many Bings of oar they have got to this time, & Mr Rudd can tell you how much dues he’s received, therefore draw out an Acco[un]t Dr, & Cr. & send me as soon as you can, & pray get the dues that are in Arrear, for wee shall be all called on fortwith to give an Acco[un]t of our managem[en]t as to this point which wee are accusd of having greatly neglected, I am                        Sr.    yours etc            JR
