LCOyne] the TALBOT PAPERS IBS 



that I should be sorry to lose a good purchaser simply because he hap- 

 pened to be born North of The Tweed. I trust you will not be very 

 rigid in exacting compliance to that part of your terms, and I promise 

 on my part to use my best endeavours to fulfil your wishes. 



I intend to send up the son of William Cummins immediately to 

 St. Thomas's to act as my agent in the sale and disposal of the Lands. 

 He is a young Englishman and of course well disposed towards his 

 countrymen a very steady loyal and well disposed young man. 



I beg to occupy your attention only to enquire further whether in 

 the event of my being able to pay up the whole purchase money upon any 

 lot or number of Lots you would give me a Deed for them ; or whether 

 you cannot consent to Deed to me any portion of the purchase, until the 

 entire be paid for. I suppose it to be a matter of course that at any 

 time I have the power of obtaining a Deed for the whole, upon paying 

 up tlie whole purchase money. 

 Believe me my Dear Sir 



Yours very sincerely, 



J. Elmsley.
