Description
Bearer, Captain Scoonmaker, is to bring up Armstrong's phaeton and harness; will need assistance to get it to the dock; asks aid of Gates' overseer or servants and cautions against delivering to anyone but Scoonmaker, as sloop captains are greedy of freight and are apt to impose on strangers; will answer Gates' letter in a day or two from his own fireside.
