To Mr John Peart at Newhouse

Sir

Last Post I received advice that my bill for the following stoppages from the miners is paid, so you may pay their Relations the money, & I will repay you when you come to Town, or you may send me a Receipt for it by the carrier if you rather chuse it as on the other side. Whitf[iel]d Gardiner has been with me & received his money himself, for he said his Mother dod not want it, & desired him to take it as he was in want of money to carry him back. There is to be no more stopt from any of them.  I am etc    JR
