My Dr Sir.

You will recollect when I had last the pleasure of seeing you in the City, that we called on Mr & Miss Davenport, & that I gave Mr  D a little National Drawing of mine, called The Monongahela, to --?-- , with a request that it should be returned to me.-

On calling on Miss Davenport a few days ago, she told me that she thought her father returned the Drama to you in care of me,   If such was the case, may I ask your kindness to leave the Book with Mr. Fleming the Stage Manager of the National Theatre, where I can call for it.

With much respect D Sir

I remain your Obt Srvt
