Dear Brother,
If thou should not have invested for me the sum relative to which I wrote to thee on the 2d. ult., having confidence in the success of the C&D Canal, I will be obliged by thy adding to the amt. $1000 or $1500., & charging it to my a/c. if it had occurred to me at the time, I wd. have made ye same request when I last wrote to thee, and it may be difficult to invest in the canal loan so small an am't as I then mentioned.* - having lately purchased some cattle & implements for my farm, I shall have occasion to draw on ye firm for ab't $100 or $120. I drew on ye 5 inst., at 3 d/s fav. Porter & Keene for $50.-
with particular love to ye members of thy family individually, I remain thy affectionate brother,
Wm D Cope
*I need scarcely add, that I do not wish this to be done, unless entirely convenient to you.
