Secretary of War Knox reports to Maunsell that "our Country is busily employed in arranging the public debt, forming a national bank, proprietary canals and a number of other useful things." Knox goes on to say that "Great Britain "... is about declaring to Russia, the terms upon which that power may make peace with the Turks." Knox asks Maunsell to give an enclosed letter to his brother William.
