Sir

I had the honor to receive your favor in which you request my opinion as to what the per Centage payble [sic] to you should be under the proposed arrangement; <1> – I have since been endeavouring to make myself competent to form some kind of estimate but am compelld [sic] to admit my inability to do so and allow me to add I feel very tenacious in offering an opinion as possibly I may be less sanguine as to the amount of business which could be done than I ought to be – In the Event of my being honord [sic] with your confidence it will be highly gratifying to myself to surpass rather than come short of your expectations

I remain Very respectfully Sir Your mo Obt srt
