References several of Knox's letters up to 25 January. Before this reaches him, William Bingham will have returned to Philadelphia. Refers Knox to him for the latest news on the negotiations and the purchase. Reports "the Committee are much please'd with him as are all with whom he associated." Wants to know Bingham's opinion of Boston. Says that Madame de Laval is very upset and just took the stage to Philadelphia to confront Knox over their arrangement. Says "she talks loud and there are some here who consider her as aggrieved." Says that Leonard Jarvis is her friend and will write Knox on the subject of her situation. Jarvis owns a tract of land adjacent to the plot Laval wants to purchase. Will send Bingham some necessary papers by the post next Monday. "Free" stamped on address leaf with no signature.
