Title	S Mackintosh at Boston [United States of America] to John Longsdon [care of Edward Morehead, Esq, New York, United States of America], addressed to Dear Longsdon, acknowledging letters of 11 and 22 of this month. He has heard nothing from Hills of Halifax since Longsdon left, but he will immediately arrange with Mr Morewood for any sum passed to his credit belonging to Longsdon. He thanks Longsdon for his offer to take charge of any shipments he makes, and will be glad to avail himself of the offer provided Mr Morewood would allow him shiproom in the vessel he proposes to charter. As an inducement he would confide to Mr Morewood the purchase and shipping of what he [Mackintosh] is disposed to invest. Mackintosh asks Longsdon's opinion of the articles most likely to suit their markets. He favours naval stores, notwithstanding reported arrivals from the Baltic, and would like to ship 1000 barrels. Can Mr Morewood spare the room? He expects Liverpool to be the ultimate destruction and prefers Fayal [?Azores] as part of transit. Whitcomb charges Longsdon 19 dollars 85 cents for use of chaise, and still holds Mackintosh responsible for the harness. Is there any opportunity to forward letters to England now, or likely to be?
