Sir /

At the solicitation of the Three Vickery’s Brother’s of the late Elizabeth Vickery ¹ on whose behalf I took the liberty of addressing you on a former occasion² – I now beg to return you their most sincere and gratefull thanks for your great kindness in interesting yourself to their obtaining their Shares of the Property left by the said Elizabeth and at their request I would state that on the 4 Inst I accompanied them to the Bank of Messrs Badcock’s at Taunton & witnessed their receiving (clear of Legacy Duty Expences &^c) £76 – 2 – 10 John & Richard Thomas £75 – 2 – 10 having been advanced 1£ by the Sol^r while at Bristol to prove the Will which I trust will be the means of affording them additional comforts when advanced Age may preclude their gaining (by labour) a comfortable subsistence –

No further accounts have been forwarded than the amount each Brother was to receive but no doubt such has been given for your inspection with this impression they appear fully satisfied everything has been correct

I am Sir with respect your Obed^nt Serv^nt
