| Description | (Dated Saturday morning.)
Dear Friend,
I entreat you will be so good as to take with you to London the following papers, which I sent you the 2d inst.:
Printed replies to Mr. Hog's answer, sewed in a marbled cover.
Four half sheets of paper (upon four different subjects) marked 1, 2, 3, 4.
One half sheet containing an account of the loss our creditors have received by Fairholme's trustee selling 27 shares of our Carron stock in August 1794.
Copy of a letter I wrote to Mr. Capper the 24th ulto.
I think it would be right to propose to my creditors to divide among themselves Carron stock in proportion to their several debts, by which means (with the money they have already received) there will be paid twenty shillings in the £, if nothing is allowed for delay of payment, and the stock proposed to be transfered to them will produce in all probability a profit of more than ten per cent. per annum, I believe much more.
I should be glad to know that your operation on Thursday night succeeded to your wish.
God bless and protect you. I am ever affectionately yours,
Samuel Garbett
You have a copy of my printed replies that are not sewed in a book. I wish I had it, for my stock of them is very small. |
