| Description | [Mr. Fordyce told Mr. Matthews he had found a suitable partner for you. Perchaud assured me if he had seen our Gilt Button Card two months sooner, he could have sold upwards of 1000 double gross of our Spangled Buttons: he is in raptures with those of two colours and requests he may have the first that are sent to London. I have some thoughts of asking Mr. Foreman to lend me 1 or £2000. Mr. Beauvais on departing for Paris, requests 2 or 3 of the new gold and silver spangled buttons as he thinks he may procure good orders for them.] |
