Sir
Since writing to you yesterday I am favoured with yours of the 28th Instant and am much obliged to you for the information it contains. In consequence of which I shall be obliged if you will get me one of the Brass three light Chandelier lamps with racks & pinions, which you mention compleat at 70/. to be here at the utmost in a fortnight. I observe that this price is considerably higher than the one at which they sell in the shops here, but doubt not of the superior excellency and elegancy of yours.
Please when compleated to send the Account in to my father and to forward the lamp per coach to my address, advising me thereof.
I remain
Sir
Your obdt Servt
