Sir
I take the liberty of addressing you upon a subject that is not agreeable, at least to me. And though I have acquainted you but little of such affairs, yet I trust hereafter I shall trouble you less, as I have already fixed upon a resolution.
When Mrs King called on Mrs Wise, she told her she had been shortening the allowances of milk, but said she would continue hers as usual, on account of the two children. Nevertheless it was soon after shortened. A little while after as I was passing by the backyard, I accidentally met with the Stockman. I asked him why he had lessened Mrs Wise's milk; he told me he had done it by Mrs King's orders. In choosing whose word to credit, the choice would instantly be made without hesitating. A few words passed and he told me I was a damned lying rascal. I can safely say, that since this present Stockman has been in this situation, Mrs Wise has been frequently imposed upon in the rights of such indulgence.
On my own part, that since I have been in this colony I can testify, that my rights as an Englishman have often times been trampled upon. I say, I want no respect shewn to me, otherwise than would be shewn to me in England. But I do not wish to humble to such language as the above particularly from
