I have sent the deed to Mr Parks to mr Lewis to execute with a request that he wd enclose it to you before friday. Should you not recieve it it will be unimportant as Mr Parks at any rate would have to send it back to us to have it recorded & therefore the mere form of sending to Mr Parks is altogether unecessary. you can write him so by mr Hoy who will nevertheless get the mortgage executed.

I am just setting off from home & am much hurried. Sincerely yr affect friend
