Content Description

They arrived safely in New York after a forty day voyage. Addressing Humphry as a kinsman he expounds on the seriousness with which he regards their shared genealogy. He will preserve the family's armorial bearings with great care and thinks there may be letters extant relating to the branch that arrived in the 1630s. He prays for peace between America and England.
