Writes about continuing to receive supplies from France. Seems annoyed about changes in the arrangements, stating "[t]his therefore had better be the course of the business that is to descend upon the agreements ... in Paris." Discusses Mr. Dunton, writing that "I believe him to be a good workman but I am apprehensive he is too greedy - a stipulation therefore must be made that such a workman as I shall appoint at my own expense shall measure the work - and decide any differences." Mentions payment of employees and other such business concerning the construction of the building. Letterpress copy.
