This shall be my last intrusion on so painful a subject I am deeply sensible of all favour, and that I have no claim whatever upon you; my distresses and misfortunes in life led you first, to honor me with notice. I can own they remain in underlinefull force/underline and I hope you will not give me or my cause up, till I obtain a something to support myself and family in a decent way. My Commission still awaits me if I cou'd go to Newcastle under Lyne unclear fav: our [[]]I have receied]] I have got a certificatr , as Col.l Elliot desird me, and I shall [[ ]]have [[ ]] pay underlineon signing underline from 22.d of July, deducting fee of Commission.
