Mr: Treasurer has seen yor. Letter of the 11th: inst: & has ordered<lb></lb>
me to acquaint you that if the 8 or 10 Breches you mention one decaying He would<lb></lb>
have you sell them to the best advantage. Mr Treasurer would likewise have<lb></lb>
given Orders for paying you for yor. trouble, but as you charge for 4 Journeys,<lb></lb>
& there appear by as Book of Orders but 3, He desires to know yor. demand<lb></lb>
upon the Hospital, & will direct the payment of it forthwith.<lb></lb>

<p n="84">Mr: Knock<lb></lb>
In Mr: Treasurer's absence yor. Letter of the 20th inst: came to<lb></lb>
my hands, in which I find you have sold the ten Breches to Mr: Swaine for<lb></lb>
five shillings a Tree, whereas you wrote in yor. former Letter that you thought<lb></lb>
they might he worth 3 or 4 Pounds: however since you say they were scrabbed & fit<lb></lb>
only for the Fire & that you have sold them for their full value, I doubt not of<lb></lb>
Mr. Treasurer's approbation of what you have done, who before He went out of<lb></lb>
Town gave me orders to write to Mr. Swaine to pay you which I desire he will do,<lb></lb>
I let me hear from him about his Rent very soon, because the Accounts are to be<lb></lb>
examined the beginning of next Month.</p>
