description Grateful for funds raised for 'our important missions among negroes and caribbs'. Needs to review his conduct to Rodda - considered him, Moore & Broadbent for Dublin but preferrred the other two as known in Dublin. Apologies that they made a second offer to Broadbent instead of accepting his. Coke asks for forgiveness for every injury he has caused Rodda and asks that he writes a short letter before he (Coke) sails on 20th forgiving him. Hopes that Rodda and McGeary 'may settle the point concerning that passage in y[ou]r Letter amicably'.
