Wrote to Duer a week ago asking him to see Henry Jackson in New York City regarding their project to purchase lands in Maine. Stresses the importance of their making a decision on the lands, as their financial situation is dire. Will not personally be able to get to New York, so again asks that he speak to Henry Jackson on the subject.
