Date3 October 1800
DescriptionDear Friend,
With this I send you:
An abstract of the attested accounts I delivered to you, dated 2d August 1800.
Copy of resolutions of general meetings of my creditors authorising the various proceedings at law.
A memorandum shewing part of Mr. Hog's conduct relative to dividends, with some notes of mine thereon.
I am much mortified by Mr. Nicholls delaying to send his account.
I thank you for the copy of your judicious letter to the noblemen and gentlemen who oppose increasing the tillage of our country. I wish you would give me five more copies that I may send one to Lord Lansdown, to the Dean of Christchurch, and my three grandsons.
God bless and preserve [you]. I am ever most gratefully and affectionately your friend,
Samuel Garbett
