I can warrant them all good of their kind.—By the next ſhip that fails from your port, you will ſend me the ſeveral articles ſpecified in the order incloſed. As, from our long connexion, I am perſuaded you have a due ſenſe of the duties of commercial life, I cannot doubt of your attention to the qualities of the goods, or your care in diſpatching them. I am, Sir, Your moſt humble Servant, W.B.
THE ANSWER.
SIR,
Your advice of the goods ſhipped on board the Success, Captain Fairweather, came duly to hand; and I have the pleaſure to inform you of their arrival a ſhort time after the packet. I ſhall ſhip on board the Speedwell, Capt. Bluffman, the ſeveral articles specified in your order, and act, I hope, upon the principles you mention, from a due conviction of their importance in the mercantile line. The continuance of our correſpondence will be highly acceptable to me, and I doubt not of its being productive of our mutual benefit.
Your humble Servant,A. J.
