Book Description
Written in Charlestown, possibly in Massachusetts. Writes to inform Knox that he purchased of Zachariah & Bethiah Fowle a house, barn and land in 1756. He bought them from Thomas Flucker, Knox's father-in-law, to whom the property had been mortgaged. Some time later, he happened to encounter Mr. Flucker and was told that everything regarding the mortgage was arranged to Henley's satisfaction. At the time of the purchase, he and Mr. Flucker were very close friends, and, being unused to buying property, Henley did not read the contract as closely as he should have. Twenty-five years later, Henley's ownership of the property was called into dispute by a Mr. Simson, who also claims to have a mortgage on the property which he arranged with Mr. Flucker. Wonders if Knox has Mr. Flucker's books and can look into the records on the subject. Also, Henley sold the property to Susanna Wollis, and, having heard about this issue, Susanna is beset with anxiety over the ownership of the lands. She has now engaged lawyers and plans to sue Henley. Asks Knox to investigate the manner and help out a poor unfortunate, and distressed man.

Book Description
Winslow acknowledges receiving Secretary of War Knox's letter written 14 October. Winslow mentions a controversy between Mrs. Waldo and Us believing that Knox had a conviction either of the policy, or propriety of it. Winslow wishes to find employment but is unable to find anything. No doubt Knox will be ever near the Fountain of Federal business and Winslow hopes to get a position. Says he has not gone to the [Waldo] patent, as Knox wished, due to the hostile disposition of some inhabitants there and his own present embarrass'd condition. Discusses Cox's petition, land sales, and other details related to Knox's land. Complains that the property is depreciating, and that local residents regularly take timber from Knox's land.
