Philip asks to put some goods on board the Oswego for its upcoming voyage to South Carolina, Saint Christopher, and Amsterdam; and hopes that it will be a most successful voyage. He also notes that he has no knowledge of the fate of an Irish voyage, and laments that neither he nor Robert, Jr. will see a penny of the money they invested in it. As a final matter, he asks Robert, Jr. to dispel some confusion regarding his recommendation of a man to build a furnace for the iron works. Docketed on address leaf.
