I arrived here last evening and find it reported that your Vessel has
been in at the Mouth of the Brazos and landed her cargo and from
thare went to search (?) for the mouth of this river I can not
learn how long since it has been the report comes from Robertson
an attempt was first made to find the mouth of this river and failed
cannot learn whether the vessel is still on the coast or not—
Mr Marple has gone down to Mr Cummings. hope on his return
to here something but Capt Dixen leaves this erly in the morning
for Labbidy [La Bahia] which compels me to wright this evening
I hope on my arrival at Mr Robertsons that I can get some certain
information that can be relied on. Foster is on the hunt for his mule
and your horse if they return hope to leve this the day after
tomorrow I will write from the Brasses—please wright immediately
after your return—
PS Mr Burnet had his large mule stollen whilst at Labbady it is
possible that it may be taken to St. Antoney if you would take some
pains to ascertain and take care of it if to be got it would oblige him
