Cold Monday Morg. 9th
Janry.
Inclosed is a Letter from Mrs
Brisler. I wrote last Week desiring him to get me some more
flower in March. I have thought since if
Ames was in
Philadelphia Whether he had not better send 2 Barrels by him the
next time he sails as there may not be more risk now than in March. I have sent
one of the Barrels You sent me to Your Mother as a New Years Token of
Remembrance from you. Grain is so excessive [illegible] dear that
I thought this a a Duty encumbent upon us, as well
as some other things which I have Done hoping and indeed being assured of your
Approbation. I carried the old Lady abroad twice last Week to visit at
Major Millars and Mrs. Veseys. She was much
gratified. She spent the day, yesterday here, and reminded me it was that Day
Year she was taken sick. Her health is as good as can be expected at her
age.
Yours as ever
