The enclosed papers were left with me by Mr Geo: Washington for your inspection Mr Hammond he said wished to know whether from them he is to considered a legatee.

I cannot find Sheppards letter I am very certain I gave it to you we were comparing it with the Will, & it is probable you put it up with that, it is of much consequence to me as it has a Receipt upon it for the money paid by me. Be so good as to send me Marshall’s receipt. Yours most sincerely
