Synopsis: Joseph Lopez informs his father about Thomas Hadley’s arrival at Leicester from Ponnagansett on November 28. He was dispatched by Captain Benjamin Wright from Jamaica with a vessel and cargo on Lopez’s account, consisting of 400 boxes of window glass, a quantity of pewter, crockery, etc. David Lopez Junior wrote him telling that Mr Swan had received a letter from Amsterdam, by which it appears that Cazneva(?) had not been out more than 40 days and then he had to touch at Norway to land some of his freight.
