Sir:

I had the honor to receive your Letter of the 14th of September. The omission of the Title of Esquire in the Exequatur formerly sent was owing to my pursuing Litterally the Recognition of Congress.

However that error is Corrected in the one now forwarded, which I hope you will receive herewith and find the same agreeable.

I have the honor to be with great respect Sir,
Your most obedient and very humble Servt.,
R. CASWELL.
