Letter from Thomas Hubbard asking John McKay to send him a large quantity of wheat as it costs less where McKay lives. October 7, 1817.
Transcription:
The wheat in this country is both [?] & grown, and is sold at 12/. Will it be possible for you to purchase and fund me 30, 40 or 50 bushels of your Celedonia wheat which I am informed still goes at 6/ with you.
If any waggon or waggons from the neighborhood [?] be going empty to Albany, they might leave it at Attica on the [Lima?] road or Madison on the Cherry Valley Turnpike for me.
Be so good as to write me by the first mail after you receive this on the prospect of obtaining it for me and how [high?] it will probably come delivered here, or at either of the above named places.
I would be glad to hear from you on the subject of our concerns whenever you please to communicate with me, and with [?] compliments to Mrs McKay
I remain in [?]
Your very Obt [Obedient] Sevt [Servant]
