Writes that William "is exceedingly well, but I think his spirits are at times too much elevated, however when he gets settled in Ireland, I much hope he will go on in a regular way, and be in a happy situation." Says he could not accept William's "draft of £190." Requests Knox settle his debt with Mr. [Samuel?] Ogden soon, or Webber will have to send someone to America to intervene. Knox remains indebted to Webber and therefore Webber cannot transfer credit from William's account to Henry's.
