Says "Altho' I have written you and I still think it will be madness in the extreme besides a great distruction [sic] of property - yet to convince you that I have not lost a moment in forwarding your views, I herewith inclose you a Copy of my Letter to Capt. Vose -" (not included). Reports that Peirce has paid the £73 to the Treasurer. Wants Knox to be easy about the tax issues, claiming he will not let any land in the patent be sold to pay the taxes.
