Sir,

The Charter which you sent us referrs to another which is prior, and which it will be necessary for us to see.

We likewise desire to have a Copy of the Fundamental Constitutions of the Late Lords Proprs for at present it does not appear to us by any thing that we can find in the Charter which you sent us, By what authority those Constitutions were made, nor how far they are at present in force. When the first Charter, and a Copy of these Constitutions are sent to us, there shall be no delay on our part I am

Sir Your very humble servant
J. WILLES.
