Davis discusses bank notes and Mrs. Knox's lands. Davis has been in discussions with Samuel Winslow and James Deering, which Davis relates to Knox. He cannot be fully sure that all the information is accurate. "Mr. Merrill," Davis says "wishes you to give him a deed of your title to the falls." He reminds Knox that the Waldo heirs "conveyed away their right to the falls and Mill privilege, and that after that Mr. Flucker sold the adjoining land and bounded it by the side of the river as the river runs--This man is possessed of a note that he can get some advantage by a deed of your right in the stream notwithstanding the former conveyances of Mr. Flucker."
