In the affidavit, Robert Livingston, Jr. states that the two preceding letters addressed to Josias Loomes are true copies of the originals, and were delivered to Josias Loomes. The first letter is dated 17 January 1752, and instructs Loomes to remove himself from Robert, Jr.'s land, as he has caused a great deal of trouble and mischief. The second letter is dated 4 February 1752, and gives a severe warning to Loomes that he will be ejected and arrested if he does not remove himself from the Manor.
