Gentn

	I am favoured with your Letter of the 4th instant acknowledging the Receipt of a Cake of Silver.  I make it it only 318.4.0 so imagine there must be a mistake of £3 of which you will please to advise me & rectify it accordingly.  I was in hopes of having 6.3 3/4 d p OZ as Mr N Walton got that Price for a Piece sent to Mr Holmes at the same Time.

                                                                                                           I am etc  JEB
