Mrs Charity Rotch
Madam, I have obtained
judgement against Mr Bagley,
and he gives me his promise that
he will comply with your terms,
and I think he will.
he has paid me, Fifty Dollars,
of which sum I send you by the
[illegible]Mr Hopkins Forty seven
Dollars and a half, reserving
Two Dollars and a half in my own
hands for collecting, as we usually
charge five percent. I will forward
to you the money as fast as it can
be obtained. Yours respectfully
Darius Lyman
