Bogardus writes of his hopes for an improvement in trade: "times have been fluctuating & distracting for trade, but now the happy moment is at hand when we can again hope for order & Regularity to take place amongst us. When the happy event of peace takes place I should wish to move from hence to sattle myself in business." He also recommends a workman for Robert, Jr.'s failing iron works. Docketed on address leaf.
