I writt on the 8^th of Aprill to
the late Govern^r Ma^jr Cranston as
well as to M^r Holden & to M^r Green
and another to Ma^jr Cranston on the
11^th of June assuring them all that
I would further the dispatch of
the business that concerned them
here but that by the Captivity of
M^r Harris I believed nothing would be det
erminded therein till those persons for
whom He was to have app[eare]d should
have be prepared to make out their Titles
to the Kings Province or any part thereof
since w^ch time their is a [illegible] presented
to His Ma^ty in their behalf and I suppose
twill ^not be long ere some resolution be
taken thereupon.

I would not faile to be punctuall in acknow
^{the [receipt]} y^r letter to me of the 8^th of May with
the Enclosed Inquiries letter to His Ma^ty
which are now lying before y^e Councill
and I desire you ^{& your [colony]} to believe my self you

occasions
