Brother
I am exceeding glad that
you received our Letter, and am glad to
hear that you received it gladly; we
likewise received yours with Joy
I have often wrote letters to my
Brethren, the English, to which I never
received any answer; whether they
were lost by the Way, or what the
occasion was that I received no answer
I know not: but now I rejoice that
I have received an answer, and hear that
our Letter [gap: stain][guess: h]as arrived safely. I
am likewise glad to hear that you
have sent an account of our desire to
England
The great Men have now
been together and I have told to them
the whole of the Letter that you sent to us
Brother I send my hearty Love
to you, and to the Ministers, and to our
other Brethren that assist them
give my Service to the King
I remain
 your Brother
