General

Will you have the goodness to advise me whether you have received from General Canby the transcript of the Articles of Capitulation by Dick Taylor, and if so to send me a copy? There is a pretty good chance to sell the Mary, of which I think advantage should be taken unless the transcript shows that we are quite sure of a decree.

Very respectfully
Your obedient servant
Wager Swayne
