References Knox's letter of 4 September. Is pleased to find his several drafts on General Henry Jackson have "met due honor." Is happy he can now "draw on him as your Notes become due here, until the whole sum is exhausted." Has already taken up three notes for him, "but for reasons that weigh with me I suffer all to be protested before I meddle with them." Says this will make Mr. Mead legally accountable. Goes into further details about the notes and says "I again repeat it, I think from present appearances I can manage your business better than if you were present." Knows Mead is "playing a deep game," but that Knox will be honorable and "relieve me as soon as you can." Sent in the care of Henry Jackson.
