Responds to a previous letter from Leval (GLC02437.05741) and discusses their land deals. Says he completely agrees with her on the advantages they would gain from a French settlement in Maine. Although she is aware of the "awkward situation" concerning the Maine lands, assures her the situation is now looking better. A "solid company" with adequate resources has now taken responsibility of the land. Notes [William] Bingham is the head of the company and [William] Duer has relinquished his rights. Believes she will be satisfied with Bingham's performance as an agent.
