Mr: Blathwait.

Sr: I have written you severall times, both
from Bermuda, & hence, and made divers
propositions, but never received any answers
from you, So I finde nothing would hurt.

Now at this unsettled conjuncture here I have
thought good to send my wife home, to give
her freinds a visit, and to see if any publick
suitable imploy can be obtained for me here
wherein, if you shall pleasde to be assisting
and direcgting, I shall upon all occasions study
to be gratefull. Craving leave to remaine

Your humble Servant
