Unsigned, but handwriting suggests the author is Henry Knox. Addressed to "Major & Captain Ulmer at Ducktrap." Previous research suggests the addressee is John Ulmer, though it could also include George Ulmer, as it seems to be addressed to more than one individual. Discusses negotiations with settlers in the Waldo patent.
