Reports on Mr. Vesey's health. Says Vesey was so ill that they took a small craft to Thomaston and that Captain Vose thought it best for them to remain a few days. Continues letter on 8 November and says Vesey is better. Reports he has spent 70 dollars thus far. Says it will take 20 fair days to complete "the business," which appears to be something to do with squatters on Knox's Maine lands. Believes he will need another 50 dollars. Notes he is "disagreeably situated not knowing what to do."
