Synopsis
Carass tells that, at the beginning of 1765, following orders of Moses Lazarus (father-in-law of Enock Lyon) he and his partners sent £203 of goods to Enock Lyon, who was then living with Lopez. Carass complains that he had not received the payment until then. Carass asks Lopez’s help to solve this affair. Moses Lazarus had died in the meanwhile. He encloses a letter to Enock Lyon.
