Writes, "The stoppage of payment by Mr. [William] Duer has created considerable anxiety, although it has as yet produced no other failures - he himself assured me that he would finally comply with all his contracts but required time." Adds that he, himself, will not suffer much from Duer's financial problems, and explains how much he loaned Duer and the arrangements they made together. Suggests that Knox help by repaying Duer any amount he can. Concludes, "If he does not come forward soon & explain his affairs this city will be in great commotion." Adds that he expects the arrival of [Samuel] Shaw any day. "Free" stamped on address leaf with no signature.
