Letters – Joseph Richmond to Richard Wilson – 2 Nov 1759

To Richd Wilson Esq at Leeds					2nd Nov 1759



Sir

Yesterday I recd your Lre of  the 23rd ult enclosed to Mr King, who tells me he will write to you by this post about the loan of the £300.  He says his Brother James and his cousin Wm King are very ready to join in the bond and I think they ought to do so, especially his brother, who I mentioned in my last lre to have some visible effects, but from what passed between us this morning I think he will propose your accepting a single bond wch may be sufficient for any thing I know; but that must be left to your pleasure     If you please to send a bond ready filled up I will see it executed, or I will fill up a bond here as you shall please to direct    The money you will have to remit will be £23.2s.6d as below  I am &c	JR
