Signed by "Joseph Peirce & Son." Contains three notes. The first informs Knox what goods are being shipped to him on board Captain Keller's vessel. The second asks Knox to tell the Duc de Liancourt that letters of his were sent. The third tells Knox that Peirce expects that his son is on his way home, which is why he has not written to him. However, if his son is not on his way home, and Knox should see him, asks that Knox tell him the Peirce family is all well and looking forward to seeing him.
