young men being engaged for Service in the United
States and in this town and neighbourhood in my opinion
and from all I can learn there is no such thing at

strangers and if the [least?] [stir?] takes place, let
it be ever so [--------?] you shall hear from me.

here for Australia to which colony the [---------?]

I am
My Dear Sir
Yours faithfully.
