Dear Sir

      I reced the favour of yours for which I am greatly obliged to you & in Answer thereto I am intirely of your opinion, that the Account to be settled must end when my Son’s appointment takes place, & therefore I think it will be best to postpone making out the Commission till the first of July.  Mr Boag and I both think so & in order that the Board may see our Sentiments, we have wrote Jointly upon it to you by this Post.  And as I should like to have a Minute made by the Board fixing it so, you will be very obliging in haveing that done.  The Minute also of the General Court, when my Son was appointed I also beg the Favour of you to send me.  Mr Boag Joins with me in Compliments & I am

      Dear Sir Yours etc

      Nichos. Walton



P.S.  My Son begs his Compts.
