potatoes according to your orders, and will shortly draw for the amount of Kempton's Bill, John Jeremy is getting forward with his house but complains of it's [its] being too small, not much larger, as he says than his camp. Strange to hear a savage thus express himself; but I suppose some white barbarian told him so.

I am Dear Sir
Yours very respectfully
Andrew Henderson

Albion Vale
June 21st 1843
To Honourable
Joseph Howe

Wrote Henderson to expend £10 in assisting Glode to build his House.
