Mr. Flower
The Governors of the Hospl. are very uneasy
at your being so greatly in debt to them, his not a custom any
thing for any of their Tenants to be ever more than a year behind,
I have directions from them to do what must greatly prove to your
Damage I was willing in favour to you, to give you this notice
that by speedily bringing a handsome Sum of Money, you may
prevent a great deal of Trouble & Charge. I shall expect to
hear from you to the purpose in a Week, by this I shew
that I am

Your Friend & Servant
