No. 107

On this important subject I shall havetoManuscript image to address you further, but I think it necessary not lose the present opportunity of directing you on no account to take any additional proceedings for borrowing money under this Proclamation until you shall receive further instruction.
I have the honor to be
Sir
Your obedient Servant
