Further discusses the negotiations for the lands belonging to the estate of Brigadier-General Samuel Waldo. Reports the news that a Mrs. W. [perhaps the wife of Francis Waldo, who died in 1784] has successfully received the amount owed to her husband from General Waldo's estate, plus interest through 1784. This was recently decided at Ipswich Court. Apparently asks Knox whether he thinks it proper to approach a Mr. W. (perhaps his cousin Isaac Winslow) about a settlement on his property. Mentions that Knox's friend General Henry Jackson has informed him that Knox will likely be visiting in the spring, hopes to defer the discussion until Knox's arrival. Sends his regards to Lucy and the children.
