Sir

I take the liberty to forward you a letter from Mr Close & to state that I shall feel obliged by an answer by the bearer. He has sent me your obligation to his late Brother, with instructions to proceed for the recovery of the amount: for which purpose I have received a power of Attorney & the necessary documents to substantiate his claim as Executor——

For myself I beg to assure you, that it will afford me much pleasure to be instrumental in effecting an amicable settlement of the matter.

I have the honor to remain

with respect

Sir

Yr most Obt Sert

Roger Swire.

 

The Hon.

S. B. M. Barrett.
