TranscriptTo John Gill, Albany 7 October 1756

Dear Sir:

I am heartily sory for your loss at Oswego & must agree with you in
opinion that it cant be very great if Mr. Jackson has acted prudently, for
he ought not to keep money by him when the Army wanted it so much. I
expect to be on A footing with all men you have dealt with since you went
to Albany, & as I am sure that is your intention, I am Content.
Many People say Mr. Kelly was concerned with you, but as I dont
think this is the case, I shall defer mentioning more on that head, as I
supose you have heard it from many others.
I am A little surprized you should complain the yarn Stockings was dear
When I sold them to others 3s per Dozen higher & had no complaint. Mrs.
Alexander, William McMaster, Alexander McKay, & many others had the
same sort from me. I never wanted money more. WC
