datestamp on folded letter from Havana, Cuba to Providence, Rhode Island, manuscript "Sh 18" rate, very fine, interesting contents from a ship captain who finds no market for his cargo and instead finds it better to sell his ship with the cargo due to the threats against Americans by British Admiral Alexander Cochrane ("The late orders of Admiral Cochrane are such with regard to Americans found on board of neutral, that I do not think it prudent to undertake any further speculation, or to place your property at risk any more")
