I wrote to you per the Packet, and do not recollect that I have any thing material to add. Mr. Strahan tells me the large Paper Molds are sent to you. The Duty on Advertisements I before inform’d you, is for every time they are inserted in the Paper. But there is no Duty on Hand Bills or sticking Advertisements, which I suppose will therefore increase, if the others diminish.
There are some Hopes now entertain’d that the Act may be repeal’d next Session, but I believe with no great Foundation. We shall however see if any thing is to be done, and no Endeavours of mine shall be wanting.
My Love to Cousin Molly and your Children. I am, Yours affectionately
