One letter addressed to Henry Knox from Richard Cutts dated July 25, 1804. Would love to join Knox in Portland, but it is impossible at present, because he is expecting ships to arrive from the West Indies very soon. May be able to visit next month at St. George's.

Knox, Henry, 1750-1806
Cutts, Richard, 1771-1845
