Insists on meeting Knox at some point, if he really is unable to go to New York City. Suggests Kingston, New Jersey as a meeting place noting that "to see you at Princetown, Trenton or Brunswick they are very publick places & would cause some speculation that two such great men should have a conference, and its [sic] possible we may be newspaper'd & an alarm go forth that the Government was in danger - " Wants to discuss with Knox the situation regarding their land deals and with William Duer. Briefly summarizes discussions he has had with Duer on the subject of their financial obligations. "Free" stamped on address leaf with no signature.
