Formerly Surajah Doulah took from Omichund some money and goods, but on application being made he ordered them all to be returned, which Omichund had received except a small quantity of goods and some money, you must remember this well. Omichund was receiving the balance [sic] when Mr Watts sent him down about Meir Jaffer's business and told him when that was finished Mir Jaffer would certainly pay him the balance. Miir Jaffer is now Nubab and you ask his Diwan please therefore to inform of this and request him to pay the balance in money. Thus you will much oblige me
