Dear Sir
Herewith please find Receipt and bill of 3 Bbls 1 Box provisions shipped per Steam "Creole" amounting to $20.00 

The Creole did not arrive here on her usual time and were informed that she would not leave until the day after advertised but she sailed the same night and we thereby were unable to send the balance of your order by her. The dried apples and Raisins will however be shipped by next steamer
