Document is not signed but appears to be in Knox's handwriting. Appears to be information that Knox gathered from a Captain Hunter respecting Thomas's (possibly Walterman Thomas) information. It was reported the insurgent threaten to kill the settlers if they went out again. Also was reported that the settlers on the Plymouth Company lands stated they were willing to give a dollar for their lands and were encouraging Knox's settlers to do the same.
