Dr bror
I hope you and Mrs S. are the better for your Journey. We shall be happy to see you at the Mins Meetg on Oct. 3. Mrs Wallis will also be glad to see either Mrs S. or Miss J. The Journey to Haddenham is put off to Nov. 1st, when I think we must go on horse back.
I have recd the inclosed from ^on^ Morris’s Concerns – and have answered by giving them our acct agst the estate, and which is as follows –
Bal. of 1808 6.11.0

In No xviii 32.12.6

And about 13£[1] (but I cannot find the bill)

bought about 45£ of Goods for India,

For this sum I suppose we must 159.6.6
