[Council to Daniel Jenifer, Esqr.]
We received yours of the 13th and have heard from Mr Ridgate,
his Terms are so extravagantly high that we cannot think of purchas-
ing his Goods, and therefore leave them to you to do with as you may
think proper. Mr Beale Turner says that none of the Goods have been
removed from Port Tobacco the Assembly are making every Exer-
tion to establish the Credit and Validity of the Certificates, and of the
paper Money of this State so that for the future we hope there will
be no real Foundation for suspecting that they will not be punctually
discharged.
