Warren, James RTP
Plymo: the 8th Augt. 1766 Dr: Sr:,

I recd. yours1 this day. Wood has been with me & we have att last settled the matter. I should have Informd. you of it before now, but that he promised to do it himself. You will therefore proceed no farther in this matter. We have nothing remarkable in this small & unfrequented370poor fishing Town. I suppose an Inhabitant of the Large & opulent Town of Taunton (which is to be the Capital of a New Goverment in the next Periodical revolution of Minesterial Whims) wont Expect any Intelligence from hence. I am Sr: in great Haste with the greatest respect to your Lady & Family. Your Most Humbe. Servt.

JAS: WARREN

P:S: You will take proper Care of our Parish Business.
