A cousin of William Short informs him that an enslaved man has stolen money and fled to Europe.
William Short describes his upcoming trip to Europe and advises his brother on how to invest his money in real estate in Norfolk, Virginia.
A friend informs that he has taken care of William Short's business, encloses a letter from his brother Peyton, and discusses cost of living in Europe, his difficult financial situation, and legal issues between him and his wife.
The second half of this letter is published by Founders Online in Philip Mazzei to Thomas Jefferson, 6 December 1784.
