Dear Sir

That many happy returns of this season may attend you is the united wish of this family.

I shall not trouble you with attending on the affair of the hollies which is made up on honorable terms. The advertisement is gone to the post,This advertisement of 4 January 1791 has not been identified. & I hope the example will be followed by yr county. If I omit any atrititive men it is thro' forgetfulness. Messrs Smalley & Co desire me to add a declaration on their part to be printed at the foot of our advertisement. Let us be civil, but firm.

Adieu

Yrs faithfully Tho. Pennant. Downing Jany 4th 1791
