Initialed by Knox. Encloses his acceptance of the conditions to purchase the Winslow family's interest in the Waldo Patent (see GLC02437.05777 and GLC02437.05828). Will also purchase the islands. If anyone else in the family wants to sell their land, Knox is willing to oblige. Will pay $12,500, half the selling price, to the Winslows by 1 May. Place writ is not listed; however, another letter (GLC02437.02828) from Henry dated the same day places him in Philadelphia.
