Portsmouth, December 2, 1776.
SIR: Captain Gardner waits on you for a commission for a very fine ship of twenty guns, which I intend sending out soon. Your Honour will particularly serve me if you will send it immediately. If it' s necessary that I should come up to Exeter, shall come, but hope it can be done without, as I am greatly hurried.
Your most obedient servant.
JOHN LANGDON.
Honourable Meshech Weare; Esq.
John Langdon to Meshech Weare
