Mauchline, 19th July 1787
Dear Sir,
I have just got a letter from Scot the Bookbinder, where he tells me he needs a little money at present.      I have written to him to call on you; & I beg you will pay him his account or give him part payment as you see proper.
When Mr Creech returns, I beg you will me know by first convenient Post.   
I am, Dear Sir, your very humble servant
