Winthrop begins with a diatribe against the "Blockhead that past through the Towne with the maile" and subsequently did not pick up a letter which Winthrop had intended for Livingston. He then writes more seriously of his support for Livingston in his struggles to regain his expenditures - "I wish you safe against all designes that may hurt your interest and hope you have foreseene to guard Against the Envy of prejudiced and unreasonable persons." Docketed on address leaf.
