Summary
Received his recent letter. Writes that he is full in the opinion with you that so long as you are entangled with the Winslows, the Patent will never be worth half its real value, and you ought to exert every nerve to buy them out, or to immediately effect a division. Relates that he ran into Isaac Winslow Jr., who was anxious for news about Knox's decision, as it will affect the plans of Isaac and his brother Samuel. Explains what he learned about the Winslow's financial status and describes in detail a negotiation he held with them about buying their land. Discusses the resolutions of the Committee, a member of which is their friend Colonel Ben[jamin Hichborn]. Sends his love to Lucy Knox and their family.
