Friend who proposes Clearing out for your Colony next week we shall send you an Exact state of that Account. We have the pleasure of informing you that just now the Lords of the Treasury have agreed to Issue their Warrant for £190,000 to be divided amongst the Colonys agreable to the last years Divison, and the remaining £10,000 to be divided hereafter as it may appear to be due. When we receive these Warrants you shall be duely advised thereof by the first Conveyance and also when the Money is paid, which may probably be some months first.
