As a consequence of this he is required to pay Messrs Cox & Greenwood [agents to the Regiment] the sum of £1102.10, which is 'the limited price by the King's regulation'. Mr Dickenson has offered to loan Frederick the money, and the letter discusses Frederick's suggestions for securing the loan.</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at Oxford Street [London].</p>
