My Dearest Friend

Inclosed is a Post note for Six hundred Dollars out of which I pray you to repay Dr. Tufts the three hundred We borrowed and the rest I hope will answer your Ends till March. My Expences here are so enormous, two subscriptions for erecting Colledges in Kentucky and in the Western Territory and a small, too small assistance to Charles will make it almost impossible for me to answer the Demands on me during the Quarter. I am my Dearest Friend affectionately yours
