References Knox's letter of 3 April. Is happy to hear his health is better. Expects to hear at any moment from the sheriff of Lincoln County that the lands will not be sold to pay for back taxes. Says Henry Jackson Knox is with him and will return to Hingham next Tuesday when his vacation is over. Reports "he conducts exceedingly well, and very much like a gentleman - I have no fault to find with him on this visit." Goes on to say he "is manly, open, free and communicative -Indeed he is not the same Lad, he was when he left Philadelphia." Reports that Mr. Dane is in Boston preparing the deeds. The Winslows want their first payment by 1 May. Refers Knox to the enclosed letter for information on their land concern (not included).
