Peter Robert writes of the state of trading markets in Europe, and notes that America is beginning to recover from a trading slump. He forwards some accounts, and states that his father will find them "more and more in favour of America so that we make no doubt here but the [Stamp] Act will be Repealed." Docketed on address leaf.
