Dear Brother
It being late yesterday (6, Oclock) before I could get the Irns [irons] etc was the cause why they did not come down on the 5th but I have sent them, this Morning. -Youl receive within this, two flat Irons price Nine Shillings - Six tumbelers, but very bad, your certificate and my best wishes - I have not had time to obtain the seed for Mr Barns - but shall do it the first opertunity -
     you are now, Just on the point of Sailing, and what advice, or comfort can I afford - you have a great work before you - that will call for the greatest Self denial, and the strongest exertions to perform which and you have no might nor strength of your own - therefore consider your weakness- let it Humbel you in The Dust before
