Writes to express condolences at the deaths in Knox's family (likely Augusta Henrietta and Marcus Bingham- see GLC02437.06724). Adds that his wife (Knox's sister-in-law Sarah Lyons Flucker Beaumez) is so overcome with grief that she is presently unable to write. Declares that they have no time to come visit the Knox family because they are departing on a journey soon, but they send their love.
