[Page 12]

long letter, & contains little information, for I have lately been much confined by a complaint which increases, a pain in the side, letters from home have a long way to go before they reach you, & this is therefore nearly a copy of the one sent by the Supply. Adieu My Dear Sir, I beg my Compliments to the Ladies of your family & remain with great esteem

Your obliged friend
& Most Obedient
Humble Servant

A Phillip
