Lawyer McKay
Sir
I was questioned by my brother previous to his departure to the North, to ask of you the earliest information respecting the collections of those bills left in your hands, and particularly the note of Hernes - I would request of you such information as you may think proper to give, respecting the resources of Wickwire the Teamster, as my brother has left a bill of considerable amount against him with me, which I would forward for collection, I have or not against Chave for

[back]

the amount of forty odd dollars which I will forward by the first trusty person and on which you will please act - I will probably be at Newmansville - in two or three weeks, if my business allows, at the same time am anxious to know the situation of affairs, in order that I may answer my brothers letter, an answer by the first opportunity will oblige
Yours Respectfully

[signed] William Voorhees
