Letter, 1769 April 19.

Letter to Thomas Wharton discussing business affairs. Johnson mentions the departure of Wharton's brother, "I sincerely wish him success, and hope that he had a safe and quick passage, which was very probably from the winds that succeeded his departure." Johnson also mentions a survey that he feels is acceptable and finally, makes some comments to Wharton regarding a personal recommendation. The individual under discussion is not mentioned but Johnson states: "From what I have since heard, I don't apprehend that the fidelity of the person you mention need be doubted." Written at Johnson Hall, Johnstown, N.Y.
