Packing Trade for your Occasions, which may daily expect. Observe the time you are to expect the Ships to returne for the Goods you shall provide, whicb, in my apprehension, will be difficult to goe to the Fort and returne soe speedily to you. By Gods Blessing you shall have those goods in good time, they onely waite for Boates, which if this place did afford, you should have had the goods with yon now. I present my hearty Service and remaine, Your assured reall Freind, AM UROBE SALUSBURY.22

The Dungarees at 7 patch per pago. as I bought then, thought might Serve your Course Goods as well as better. Id. A. 8." 23
"Mr Richard Mohun Eloa. Connoell, Esteemed Freinds, My last aoquainted you Boates are not here procureable and that the Peeter here will qt. nerest 850 baggs, all being not yett weighed, cannot exactly know itt. In my Judgement the Boates you send were better delivered the Goods on Boarde as the Ships pass this place, Or if you think its most Convenient they were better to continue untill the Ships retarne from the Fort then to be Landed in Metchlepatam and againe Shipped to Send on borde. Which you shall judge best for the Honble. Companys proffitt, please to advise, and your Order shall bes obeyed by Your assured Freind, AMBROSE SALUSBURY.24

"V Ambrose Salusbury, We have now Before us yours of the 19th & 21th. which advise us your want of Boates to Bring the Peeter & packing trade for this place, in reference to which wee have this day hired 4, who to Morrow will be ready to saile towards you. The tonnage of those goods with you we have computed & find that lesse will not serve the turne. Upon their arrivall, wee desire you to lade & dispatch them to us as soon As conveniently you canne since time is precious & will not at present admitt of delays. What you mention in yours concerning the detaining of the said Boats untill returne of the shipps from Madrasse & su to put the Peeter &ca, on Board them without lauding here, we cannot approve, since it will not only create a trouble But bo also uncertaine. Wee therefore againe desire you that you will send them directly unto us, which apon the approach of the Floete shall be laden Before our Bale goods, which is the neelfall at present...... R. MOHUN &ca.
