to you of the 25th March last, would have been of<lb></lb>
sufficient Authority to You, to have made use<lb></lb>
of any means for the security of the Tree that was<lb></lb>
blown down, but as you thought otherwise, you<lb></lb>
are<gap reason="illegible"></gap>
again desired to make use of every method<lb></lb>
you can desire for the carrying it awayif you<lb></lb>
find it necessary to make a Saw-pit, let it be<lb></lb>
done out of hand, but at the same time to take care<lb></lb>
that it be Sawed into such Slabs or Boards, as may<lb></lb>
be usefull in rebuilding the Barr that was blown<lb></lb>
downAs the said Tree will be reckoned as part<lb></lb>
of the Allowance which the Commee have Order'd,<lb></lb>
you will do well to take the Dimensions of it,<lb></lb>
tho' I believe that is already done, but con not are<lb></lb>
of itif through any neglect if Yours, the Tree,<lb></lb>
should be carry'd away by Mr. Sear's Agent the<lb></lb>
Consequence may proceed disagreeable to you, as<lb></lb>
the Commee will have is in this Power to reverse<lb></lb>
their Order for the Allowance towards Your damage<lb></lb>
