Content Description

He writes from on-board the Earl of OXford East Indiaman, where Captain Canning tells him the recipient should be expected back in England shortly. He cannot wait to tell him all that has occurred since they last met. He summarises the misfortunes brought upon him by Mr. Macpherson, who has "destroyed me in India". He has received Freeman's bond for the money received on his account and trusts that it will be available to him as soon as he reaches London.
