Discusses a land deal, informing Hobart that the sale's entry will be made in the name of Elizabeth Valcan, Priscilla Fillmore, and Jane Fillmore. Suggests that the sale should be "320 acres, that is two quarter sections of 160 acres each." Mentions the death of John Turner and Judge Thomas. Notes that he has no news from his eastern friends, but that may be because they are inattentive in sending it.
