By him I hear the disagreeable News that Cleveland1 is not better than he should be & is like to come into trouble. I therefore send inclosed his Notes & hope they do not come too late. If there should be any Occasion for Suing Colo. Eliphalet2 has power of me, pray be so good as to secure them. I wrote last Decr. by Fairbanks hope he has paid you since that. I hope you & yr. family are well. After my respects to them & acknowledgemt. of yr. many Kindnesses I subscribe yr.,
