3 July 1813
Winchester, James (1752-1826)
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Captain Francis Kempt
"I am told you object to my having Joseph Cains as a servant on the grounds that … he was born in the East Indies and possibly in those parts…owned or possessed by your Government." The writer proposes another servant for himself and two more for his friends. He hopes that these men will not turn out to have any far-flung British connections. He also wishes to be informed of what happens to his letters after the Captain has examined them.
