Sir
Dr Carnabys sending you some Bills payable as he tells me the 7th of next month (of which moneys he has desired you to pay to my order eighty five pounds) gives me this favourable opportunity of saluting my old acquaintance with my best wishes of an happy new year:
I beg you will be so kind as to pay to Mr Tho Day fifty pounds of the said money to whom I have accordingly given a bill upon you and another for £35 to Mr Richard Brigham or order payable at 12 days after date when I suppose you will have received the money.
I should be glad of any occasion of serving you in these parts and of showing you with how much esteem & sincerity I am
Sir / your humble servt / Bryan Tunstall[…]
