TranscriptTo William Haliday, Liverpool 10 January 1757
Sir:
You shiped some goods for Mr. Samuel Kimble of Brunswick some
time agoe. A part of them came to you from the Country, & in one of the Bales he says afound a Bill of parcel from the Maker to you, & in your
Invoice A very extravagant advance charged him, indeed 25 or 30 per
Cent. As he has put about this affair in a way that will be the greatest
hurt to you if not cleared up, I hope you'l put in my power to expose him,
which you may depend I will do & cure him forever of saying a thing he
cant support. That you may be better able to judge of the affair, annexed
you have a Copy of a Letter I wrote him1 on first Learning of the affair
from such authority as I could depend upon, to which he has made no
reply. But he shall the first time he is in this place. WC
