Dear Sir,
I regret I did not see you to day, / when in town. I wrote M Thomas yes - / terday that the paper he mentioned would / answer, if it was what is called good / [retrec], of which, of course, he must be / the judge; and mentioned to him to send / 14 reams, if he did send. I know no other / course to pursue respecting paper for the / second edition except taking the 10 reams / that are made, and taking the residue of / the other quality [^ that is the [1 dollar?] paper;] for as far as I can as - / certain, there is none more suitable to / be had. Please to let me know if that will / answer.
Yours respectfully
CS Van Winkle
