1815 stampless manuscript letter from Samuel Jones, of Cronstadt, Russia, to Captain William Graves, of St. Petersburg. Due to the threats associated with privateers and enemy ships during the War of 1812, Captain Graves was forced to remain in Russia for the duration of the war. Captain Jones writes to him that "The bearer of this has applied to me for a berth on board my ship, but tells me he is indebted to his landlord in St. Petersburg 160Ro & that he cannot remain here with out giving him some security. You will oblige me if you will call on the landlord and tell him that I will employ the man & if he goes with me I will before I sail pay him the above sum on the man's account. He thinks the ice will be good enough for him to go to Petersburg tomorrow & return next day. If he does pray give us the news by him/ Saml Jones
