Synopsis
Lopez acknowledges receipt of Brown & Co.’s last letter in which they acquaint him having received the money he transmitted with the deficiency of a certain amount. Lopez accepts to take 6 puncheons of the Jamaica rum they offered in exchange for his goods. His ship left London in August, so he expects its arrival soon. He orders 10 tons more of pig iron.
