Your leter of y^e 22. of July, 1634, by your trustie and our loving friend M^r. Winslow, I have received, and your larg parcell of beaver and otter skines. Blessed be our God, both he and it came safly to us, and we have sould it in tow parcells; y^e skin at 14^s. li. & some at 16.; y^e coate at 20^s. y^e pound. The accounts I have not sent you them this year, I will referr you to M^r. Winslow to tell you y^e reason of it; yet be assured y^t none of you shall suffer by y^e not having of them, if God spare me life. And wheras you say y^e 6. years are expired y^t y^e peopl put y^e trad into your & our hands for, for y^e discharge of y^t great debte w^ch M^r. Allerton needlesly & unadvisedly ran you & us into; yet it was promised it should continue till our disbursments & ingagements were satisfied. You conceive it is done; we feele & know other wise, &c. I doubt not but we shall lovingly agree, notwithstanding all y^t hath been writen, on boath sids, aboute y^e Whit-Angell. We have now sent you a letter of atturney, therby giving you power in our names (and to shadow it y^e more we say for our uses) to obtaine what may be of M^r. Allerton towards y^e satisfing of that great charge of y^e White Angell. And sure he hath bound him selfe, (though at present I cannot find it,) but he hath often affirmed, with great protestations, y^t neither you nor we should lose a peny by him, and I hope you shall find enough to discharg it, so as we shall have no more contesting aboute it. Yet, notwithstanding his unnaturall & unkind dealing with you, in y^e midest of justice remember mercie, and doe not all you may doe, &c. Set us out of debte, and then let us recone & reason togeither, &c. M^r. Winslow hath undergone an unkind imprisonment, but I am perswaded it will turne much to all your good. I leave him to relate perticuleres, &c. Your loving freind, JAMES SHERLEY. London, Sep: 7. 1635.
