Dear Sir

To my great comfort Mr Lows draft is just arrived, which I shall pay on Saturday. I leave town on Monday. I do assure you the fault about the delivery of yr Books rests on your master of the ship.

Be so good as to return the Letter I sent undirected.

I am in much
haste yrs

Tho. Pennant.

April 28th 1774.

I think you had best order some ship master to call at Mr Whites for the box of my Tours1 that you are so kind as to disperse.
