TranscriptTo Aspinwall & Doughty, Present 3 June 1756

Gentlemen:
I expected before this to have received the State of Messrs. Melling &
Company account. These Gentlemen writes me very pressingly on that
head. So I request you to enable me to comply with their Desire.
I have received from Mr. Haliday & Messrs. McQuoid & Haliday
proper proofs to enable me either to leave your disputes to A Court or
arbitrators. I am of opinion, when the expences are made very large,
matters must be left to arbitration by order of the Court, & as yet they cant be much. I am now ready to leave all matters in dispute to two men of
Character & Credit in the place, you to choose one, me a nother, & if they
cant agree, they to choose the third, & their Award to be binding. I shall
expect your answer to this in writing. I must beg leave to assure you thai
this proposal dis not come from me from the least cause I have to suspect
the goodness of my Friends Actions. Far to the Contrary. I must assure
you I think it A just one, & That I shall be able to make appear. WC
