[sketch of pear]

[illegible]
Sep. 27.

This pear is about the midling size the stalk
is long and that end very much pointed. The
skin <s>illegible</s>is smooth of a grey yellow & grey with spots
or clouds of red. The flesh is tender half buttery
and melting, apt to rot soon.  The juice is abundant
and pleasant. Is is <s>ripe</s> in September.
Would be admired at another Season but 
coming at the same time <s>with</s> the Beurré
Seckle [Seckel] Crasane & [illegible] it is less valuable.
