Writes that some papers related to the deficiency of land are smuggled in the Senate; said to be mislaid, but may come to light in the next court. Notes that [Nathan] Dane plans to travel to New York to transact in behalf of this Commonwealth, and may miss the next court session. Writes that Captain Vose, who is managing affairs on Knox's Maine lands, cannot collect payments until the court makes a decision.
