Discusses Knox's agreement with William Duer. Encloses a copy of a letter he received from Duer (not present) and states "I think it is pretty well understood that your conditional agreement will not be complyed [sic] with in his part - " Strongly encourages Knox to buy Duer out. Mentions some trouble in finding the money to pay the committee for their land contract. Mentions that Mr. De Gregoire has tried to evade his contract with Jackson and refused to give a Warranty Deed. Ends by stating, "Press Duer for the 5,000 dollars, Flint or some other person as I must pay that note before I can go to N. York - it is a damn'd thing."
