Scope and Contents

When Billy Hall planned Captain Daniel Morgan's voyage, it was intended he should bring back the amount of Smith's bill. As Captain Morgan wants flour, try giving Smtih's bill to Banks and Company. If nothing can be done, I would advise selling the lots at Vendue. Colonel Parker has offered £600 for it. I am sending you a trunk which contains my father's papers. I am leaving a power of attorney here with Mr. Burke. I have nominated you, Mr. Burke, and C. Calvert as our attorneys. I plan to leave for Grenada in a few days.
