My dear Sir,

In the last Winter my only Daughter was married here to Joseph Hixon Esqr. of Monserrat, in the W. Indies. He went from hence in the Spring by Way of Cork to London. I beg you to take the Trouble of sending by the first safe Opportunity an enclosed Letter from her to him. The Letter is wholly private, and makes no Mention of public Affairs. Should accident bring him to France, your Notice of him will much oblige Your very respectful and affectionate humble Servant
