Responds to a letter from Bourne related to a sum owed to the heirs of Balthazar Bayard from the estate of Thomas Flucker, Knox's father-in-law who passed away in 1783. Notes that settlement of the estate depends on settlement of the Lincoln Patent (Waldo or Lincolnshire Patent). Indicates that when the estate is settled, Knox will in turn satisfy Flucker's outstanding debts.
