From Samuel Quincy
Quincy, Samuel RTP
Braintree Feby. 16, 1764 Bror. Paine,

Last October Court, you may remember, I sent a Writ Gould vs Nye, which was Served & the money paid to The Sheriff, as He himself informed me by Letter & promised to send it to me by the first Oppo. since which have heard nothing from him. I have mislaid his Lr: & forgot his name. As you forwarded the Writ for me, you know The Officer & I shd: therefore be glad you wd. enquire about The Affair & if you can procure & send me the Money. I suppose The Officer has The Writ Still in his Possession & by that you'l know the Sum. Your Care herein will much oblige Your Friend & Bror.
