Good Aggatts, w:th trees in y:m & some 100 good Motho: [?] tree stones, these are triviall, not worth yo:e trouble, yo:e Bannian would doe me a Curtesy, since my comeing home I am Kings Broaker, to procure him Mangoes  & lime Archar (sic) if yo:w could furnish me w:th three or 4 jarres of y:e best Archarr, yo:w would highly oblige me, & doe y:e King a kindness, he being a great lover of those things.
