331. Charles Whitworth to Nathan Jones. He sends this letter by Mr. Furlong, who goes to find out whether he can obtain a cargo of lumber from Jones for a ship which George Parker consigned to Whitworth. If Jones has the lumber the ship will carry some of its English cargo, by way of payment, to Frenchman's Bay; he sends an inventory so that Jones may choose, also a few of his handbills in case they may contain some things Jones wants.  Holograph.
