John writes home to send his wishes of health to all, especially his mother who had just recovered from a fever, and then begins to list his creditors, including Duncan Campbell and Messrs. Long and Van Sweten. He requests that his father send him a ledger and a journal to assist him in this venture, and asks that Robert Livingston inform Benjamin Ash that John could not afford to sell pork for less than £3 5 shillings per barrel. Docketed.
