I came hither on the Business of our House having 5 rich Jamaica prizes to our address, with upwards of 2000 hhd Sugar and 400 hhd Rum. The alliance is just arrived with 4 more, and She has sent 5 into america, two have got into Nantes so we Know of 16 taken; I have another privateer which I hourly expect will bring in 2 or 3 more. I have advice from my Father of the Reception of Johonnotts and Warrens Bills, but no acct of the payment yet. I shall carry Mrs Williams to her Friends to pass the Winter, for I fear her Health will never be perfectly established at Nantes. I hope at same Time to pay my Duty to you and to see you much better than I hear you have been. I am most dutifully and affectionately ever Yours.
