Respected Friends Whittelsey & Hubbard
By the Gottenburg Capt. Claghorn from Sweden, I have received acct Sales of some Tobacco which I ship'd by hi and consign'd to my Friend Henry Greig of Gottenburg together with a parcel of 13 Casks of yours with 10? Casks of Parsons & Cooly of Springfield. I have received acct. sales of mine & yours & yours I inclose with that of Parsons & Cooly - together with your acct. with e on that Adventure - which was cosign'd to me with mine - it is a poor price for Tobacco in Europe, but New England Tobacco even of the best quality will not answer at that market, indeed nothing short of best kind of Virginia - and my friend writes me he was very sorry it was so poor - , By your acct you will see what I have for you , and I request your directions therein of which I must do with your Good, by first opportunity, as also directions from Parsons & Cooly, who I beg you will inform hereof - in the mean while remain your Friend
