Letter from Richard Henderson to Richard Bennehan.

Granville, Augt 29th 1772.

Dr Sir,

Have not been able to see that little scoundrel, Will Potter yet, nor do I know where he is. The small pox, I understand is in a good way being mostly confined to those negros over the River & not yet broke out among the rest. Col. Williams & myself will meet you on Tuesday Eveng near the Nap of Reeds.

I am with the greatest Friendship Dr Dick,
Your most Obdt Servt
RICHd HENDERSON.
