Esteemed Frd
Thomas Rotch when I
opened thy last I found those Certificates
which I return with my respects to thee
and thy Charity hopeing to see you
again perhaps at Quarterly meeting
if the roads are good and health permits
we are midling well at present my
wife has been very poorly and Rachel
Blackledge has also been much aflicted
with the rhumatism but is on the
mend I did look for a line or two on
the paper that those Cert were in
it would been pleasing to thy friend.
