Thanks Knox for his attention to his son, especially for his help in getting his son a job with General [Benjamin] Lincoln. Discusses taxation on estates and refers to General [Henry] Jackson and Colonel [Benjamin] Hichborn (may be alluding to the Waldo patent lands). Mentions that he hasn't heard from his brother in some time, and asks whether the brother has traveled into the Indian Country.
