I desire the Security may Comence not before the 1st day of May and when <tis> finished I desire you and Dr Ward to come to Newby & shall Execute these. If yr business will not permit it shall wait of you at <Handerson> and execute it there. Pray satisfy when this comes to yr hand

      I am sr yr obliged humble Servt



Thos Adams Esq Yorke
