I am happy to have it in my power to write to you by a safe hand
in which I acknowledg the recd of yours informing me that I could
not get but one leage of land which was very contrary to my ex-
spectations for I was very much lifted with you cuntry and had the
most exspliscit confidence in your promis to me with respect to the
two leages of land that I felt safe and if it had a been in my power
to have went and have chose it you would have made no objections
and sir pardon me when I insist on your complying with your
promis I was on the virge of starting out with Mr L W groce but
on the recept of your letter I declined coming untill I heard from
you Dear sir I have this day made arangements with Mr Morgan
for the part leage provided it meets your approbation he will let me
have that place which I hope you will do me the favour to grant—
and if you cant let me have but one leage I hope it will be that as
but one leage above town would be no enducement to moove to your
country but if you let me have that I will moove to it this winter
that is I will have a crop made on it next year and moove in the
spring or fall— and sir if you do me the favour requested write
by the first opertunity and I will come out by the last of September
bring on some hands to go to worke and pay you your money for the
land and improvement sir I hope you will answer this by the [first]
opertunity as I shall be very ansious to hear from you Dr Sexton
wants that leage but Mr. Morgin has given him up the leag on the
