I think he is brother to Sally Scott from Bangor, will you inquire about it as he has never paid the money I am in hope of receiving some money on the two Bonds between this & the next pacquet, if not I shall endeavour to remit you by my bill or on London on as much as will with whats in Wm [William?] Norris's hands pay of [off?] Mrs Clark, I shall get him to assist you in negotiating the order I may give.

I am sorry for the Death of poor Paterson [Patterson?] The parties you mention took the last method of setling [settling?] their difference, did McCulloch marry one of James Browns Sisters, he was here During the war & an intimate friend of mine. I was always at a loss to know how the former came by so great a fortune. I find the April pacquet arrived in 25 days will you get one of the Tenants to collect a bushell of [WhinSird?] Mr Apthorpe wants it sown round his fences, with Compl [compliments?] to all friends & Love to our Sisters I am Dr [dear?] Matty Your ever [afft?] [affectionate?] Br [brother?] [&c?] pacqt [pacquet?] Belfast HY Hamilton?] [Young?] [&c?] pacqt [pacquet?] |
