Dear Sir/

I have sent to M^r Grosett ², to enquire respecting his Banker, & in reply, he has sent an Authority to M^r Gale ³ the Auctioneer of this place, to receive your Payment – which he has shewn me –

If you approve the Arrangement, M^r Gale will be obliged by your remitting the amount to me thro’ Mess^rs Fry ⁴ & Chapman, w^ch I can then pay over to him & take his Receipt as M^r Grosett’s Agent. –

I am Dear Sir Y^r Obliged & obed Ser^t
