Sir

The bearer of this is mother of a lad that I woud wish to take to America with me; she consents to his going, but is anxious to be informd particularly about the personne he goes with. As no information she can have on that subject can be so respectable as Yours, I beg leave to request that You will give her such as your knowledge of me may suggest. I beg You will excuse the trouble I give You on this occassion & am Sir Yr. Mo. Respct. Sert.
