Should it be agreeable to you
to furnish me with from Fifty to Seventy
Bar^ls of Corn at Twelve Shillings p[er] Bar^l
you may rely on being paid in the month
of April either in Cash or Rum as you
may think proper — if this proposal shou'd
be agreeable to you, please deliver the Corn
to Captⁿ Massingburg — but my terms
not suit you, I request you'll be so good
as to drop me a line, which will prevent
me from purchasing elsewhere.

N.B.
Please direct to the
care of Simon Vashon Norfolk
