The packing trade for Madrass, if not already sent, wee judge will now doe better to send it directly heither for the saveing of charges, which may be done by ladeing it upon the Companys ship from hence theither, but let it be made up apart with a distinct account of it sent therewith to Sir, Your loveing freinds, RICHARD MOHUN
&ca.

"Mr Richard Mohun &ca. Councell, This Instant yours of the 24th received, by which understand your occasions require Ropes and Twine for Imbaleing your Goods,, which shall speedily bee sent you. The Ginghams will bee finished in 10 dayes, which suppose will bee tyme enough for the Shipping, but had not I a dayly Eye over them, they would not bee done in this short tyme. The Packing trade, as you enorderd, have prepared Boates for, and paid the money received from you in part, therefore cannot now get back, part being Laden and the rest will very speedily, when you shall have account of the whole and what Contract made. This is the needfull from Your Assured friend, AMBROSE SALUSBURY,
