To Unknown

Sir

     I have at length recieved a promise from Mr Morson to deposit immediately in one of the Alexandria Banks the amount of the principal & interest of the bond due by my nephew. I shall inform him tomorrow what will be the amount, and I presume that in 8 or 10 days I may calculate upon being ready to pay you. You will please forward the bond to your agent in Alexandria together with a deed duly executed & attested by 3 Witnesses acknowledging the reciept in full of the whole debt secured by the deed of Trust mentioning the names of the Trustees & the date of the deed & releasing to Alexander Morson all your right title interest & estate in the Land so Conveyed. If you have the deed of Trust with you, it would be better to write the release on the back of it, & send it with the bond. I am Sir yr mo. ob. Servt
