John Alsop to New-York Congress

v2:1532

Philadelphia, July 3, 1775.

GENTLEMEN: Your favour of 28th ultimo I received, respecting some blankets. In answer, a friend of mine has a quantity at Maryland, with some strouds, and other Indian goods, which he chooses to sell all together. They are ordered here; as soon as they arrive, he will give the invoice, which I shall lay before the Congress, as I suppose they will purchase the whole. Shall inform them of the number of blankets wanted by you, tut I fear there is not so many as you stand in need of. I am, with respect, gentlemen, your very humble servant, JOHN ALSOP.
