Initialed by Jackson. Tells of meeting the committee of both houses on the taxes assessed on the Waldo Patent. Jackson, Peirce, and the two Winslows were there. It was decided that it will be referred to the next session of the legislature. At that time people will need to appear to "show cause why the said Tax's should not be equally paid by the several proprietors in proportion to the lands held by them, and not by the present Heirs of the late Brigr: Waldo." Has drawn on Knox for $475 to pay $300 to the bank and $175 for Knox's note to Isaac Winslow. Reminds Knox to send final plans for the house in Maine.
