Title Thomas Wright, Plumstead, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, to Thomas Greer, merchant, Dungannon, County Tyrone, 14 June 1774
Description Thomas Wright writes to his merchant friend that his family are healthy and wishes the same for him. He gives news of issues he has in collecting debts from mutual acquaintances and promises to aid any relations of Greer who may emigrate to him. He laments that his wife refuses to allow him to visit home as he misses them all very much. Wright relates that there is much dissatisfaction in the colonies due to British "impositions" and Boston port blocked by a fleet, with many predicting events leading to a bloody war, but which he hopes will be resolved "on more milder terms".
