| Description | (2 ff.) Dear Sir, The patent was delivered to me agreably to what I mentioned in my last letter, and we shall be prepared to recieve your first supply of copper in March, conformably to our arrangments. No variation will be required in the dimensions of the sheets from those of the thinner sort which were before furnished by you. Regular supplies of the coin have been sent to the metropolis, tho’ not to the extent of the demand for it, as that could not be done consistently with a due attention to the wants of other places, particularly of the large manufacturing towns, from which the demand continues unabated, notwithstanding the active and constant employment of our mint. My father feels himself obliged by your kind remembrance of him, and with much respect I remain, dear sir, your obedient servant, M. Robinson Boulton
