To Mr Prior

The haste Maj.r Bland went away in t'other
day for Spain, was Such, as caused an omission
to be made in his dispatch of a very necessary
Instruction relating to ye Stores w.ch may happen
to be undispos'd of in Barcelona, when ye Troops
Shall leave those parts. I must therefore
entreat yr fav.r to deliver him ye enclos'd
Pacquet,1 when he does himself ye honour
to wait on you, & to receive yr com.ds for
those parts, but in case he Shd have been
already dispatcht by you, & that there is
no way of Sending it Safely after him,
I desire you will please to return it me as
Soon as may [b]e,2 that I may Send it by y.e
hands of Some other Gent.~, who will proba
bly in a little time be Setting forward
for Spain
I am
Sr &c.
