In a partial settlement of my clothing acots Mr Henly receipted with him [on ] behalf of Otis & Henly for some shirts, Since which having perfected my settlement with Mr Walker(1) & accounted for the same I wish to get up the rect. which Mr Walker says was transfered to you & from you to General Jackson. You will oblige me by revoking it from Gen Jackson by which means Mr Walker being possessed of it may cancel what is now a nullity.
I am, Dear Sir, With esteem & regard, Your most H Ser.
Sam. A. Otis
