Copy of a letter from Herman Le Roy to William Duer; written in Henry Knox's hand. Informs Duer that Knox called on "Mr C" [Théophile Cazenove] and himself to discuss the eastern lands. Says Knox made it clear to them that he would be willing to divide the land as necessary in order to accommodate them in a purchase, however, both he and Casenove had previously decided "not to have anything to do" with the eastern lands until Mr. Morris returns and they receive news from Europe.
