Andrew Smith to Arthur Spicer Brockenbrough

Dear Sir

Richmond 2d. June 1821

I yesterday forwarded, agreeably to your instructions, five Casks of Roman Cement, to
Jeffersons Mill, per Mr. Wm. Johnstons Boat, which I hope may arrive safe--I enclosed you
printed Instructions for making and using it, which I hope may be acceptable--you'l observe
that great care is necessary in preventing exposure to air or damp--

Annexed is Captn Hendersons Receipt for the 5 Casks, and a Bill of the Same--
amot--$48--45--being as low, if not more so, than you can procure the genuine Cement
elsewhere I am Dr Sir Your Mo Obt

Andw Smith

ALS, ViU:PP, 1p, with address "Arthur S. Brockenbrough Esqr Charlottesville Virginia" and
ASB docket "A Smith Richd. 1st June 1821 Bill Roman cement." The copy of Henderson's
receipt, nearly identical with the one Smith sent Brockenbrough on 1 June, is in the loose
receipts for 1821 in ViU:PP. The bill for $48.45 has not been identified; Brockenbrough
apparently paid it in July (see Charles Gardner to Brockenbrough, 6 September).
