Summary
From a Town-Tenant to his Landlord, excusing Delay of Payment.
Honoured Sir,
I am under a great Concern, that I cannot at present answer your just Expectations. I have sustained such heavy Losses, and met with such great Disappointments of late, that I must intrude another Quarter on your Goodness. Then, whatever Shifts I am put to, you shall hear to more Satisfaction than at present, from, Sir,
Your most obliged humble Servant.
