TranscriptTo Robert Alexander, London Derry 13 December 1756


Sir:

We received your Favour of the 19th September (by Capt. Fall) to our WC
Agreeable to your order, we have Shiped in the Ship Hopewell, James
Falls Master, Thirty Hogsheads of Flaxseed which will cost you about
28/6 British per Hogshead, & he will be clear to Sail in the first Week
of January. The Box of goods is sold, but you will loose considerably
by them, for such is imported here much cheaper from England then you
can send them. The proceeds shall be remitted as you direct. G&C
