I haue inclosed bils of ladeinge to your father. since the date of those your letters I haue paid the freight primage auarage and all other Charges, the freight beinge 3li 15s at 3li per tun primage and auarage 3s 6d I haue lefte nothinge for you to pay. I pray forget not to put to account what Charge you haue been at with the tripartable goods.
