Synopsis: Lopez laments he could not save any more bills for Brown & Co. than the £400 he offered them. Captain Wright will not make any discount – he is to depart to Jamaica in 3-4 days. Lopez accepts to take 40 tons of oil in his snow to London. In P.S., he adds that if they are intended to ship any pig iron, he only can take up to 12 tons.
