I am Realy sorry to give you so much trouble I hope you will excuse my writing this Letter to you - since I Recd your Letter (which informed me that the Vines had been sent off on the 15th), I have constantly made enquiries after them at the Different Waggon offices but cannot get any account of them  they all Positively deny having any Such things - as there are Several Gosport waggons I beg the favour Sir to know by which they were sent --- I am happy to say that neither the Olives Carribs or Camphor have any hurt from the Frost

I am Sir
your obedient & Grateful
Servant G Sutton
