                                                     ---
                                                     609

The following is as Near as I can git to my Report of March 11th (viz)

I Was Sick in Apl - and not able to make out a Return; my Wife had to ishue out the corn - and the Report of the 1st. May in cluded all I had on hand 

That you speak of in March must of come to I. F. Danforth - I had nothing to do with that - The poor of this County are Suffering Very much now for the want of Bread -
