To Christopher Champlin, Newport
London, January 3, 1766
I make no doubt but before you receive this letter you will have heard of the dissolution of the partnership between Mr. Champion and myself which took place on the 31st of last month; This event makes me think it necessary to address a few lines to you to acquaint you with my resolution of carrying on business in may own name and to make you an offer of my services in the execution of your future commands, assuring you that whatever you may think proper to entrust me with shall be attended to with the utmost punctuality and executed with the estrictest fidelity and that I will in every instance endeavour to approve my self worthy of your regards. I have no doubt but you are well acquainbted that the business of the House has been long conducted entirely by me and that every part of it has been done either with my own hands or under my immediate inspection (Mr. Champion’s health having for several years past been so indiferent as to cause him to reside altogether in the County) só that the dissolution of the partnership will make no sort of difference in the manner of my conducting the business, but I shall for the future labour in my own name to do everything in the best manner for the service of my friends as have hitherto done the like in the names of C and H.
I hope and flatter myself that such part of your business as has been hitherto entrusted with me has been executed to you satisfaction and I shall rejoyce in future opportunities of showing how much I am.
Sir your most humble servant
