Dear Sir:

The bearer David Oliphant Esq., a very worthy Gentleman of my particular acquaintance, having occasion to take another journey to North Carolina, as he had not the pleasure of delivering in person the letter, for you from me, which he carried last year, I take the liberty by this, to introduce him to you flattering myself he will receive your countenance, in any business which he may have to transact in your State. I am with great respect and esteem dear sir, your Mo. huml. servant,
