Received Knox's letter from 5 January. Has had several conferences with the committee over contracts. Received a paper from the committee for the sale of Eastern lands yesterday, which Jackson has copied and included in this letter. The committee views the three contracts as tied to one land company and they cannot justify giving two of the contracts when the stipulations of the third which was to have been complied with so long ago, remains to be fulfilled. Says the committee appears determined to keep their [Dollar sign]5,000, but I doubt not we shall [beat] them of that ground tomorrow. Believes William Bingham's manners and address will effect his expectations. Free stamped on address leaf with no signature.

Signed and initialed by Jackson. References a previous letter of Knox's (no date). Says the enclosed letter should be delivered by Knox to William Bingham (not included). States no time is to be lost if Bingham is to buy the tract mentioned in his letter of 10 February. Believes there are people who know of their situation and want to speculate on it. State he is happy that Knox bought out the Winslow's interest in the Waldo patent. Says I please myself the moment the Indian War is at an end, that your whole exertion will be to that point [dealing with the patent], in order to make a lasting and sure establishment for your family. Notes he would like to spend the next ten years of his life in the Eastern lands promoting their settlement. Goes on to say that he would have no objection to going to Europe to promote the lands either. Says it would be enjoyable for him to go to Europe as he could see his sister, whom I have not seen for near twenty years. Hopes he has compromised with Madame de Leval.

Discusses the land deals concerning Madame de Leval and Mr. de la Roche. Defends his actions of supplying deeds to Leval and Roche by quoting directions he was given by both Knox and Duer. Quotes Duer wrote him, General Knox who is with me has agree'd to give to Madame Leval & Mr. De La Roche deeds for that part of Trenton & No.8... and another quote from Knox stating I most earnestly desire you to arrange Madame Leval's situation in Trenton...quit them for it would be bad to be entangled with them in any law suits. Further discusses in detail specific instructions given to him regarding these contracts, actions he has taken thus far, and where the contracts stand at this point. Expresses relief that Duer and [Royal] Flint have relinquished their shares and are now completely unconnected in the purchases.

Signed and initialed by Jackson. References Knox's letter of 9 March. Tells him not to worry about the sheriff selling the land for taxes, as he heard he has no authority to do so. Says I wish you had closed your business with Mrs Laval as I want your mind relieved from her pressing and unreasonable importunities. Was hoping to receive information on the purchase by Soderstram and McComb as his note to William Tudor is due today. Assumes Tudor will demand payment tomorrow. Will fight Tudor's demands. Reports I expect to be able to obtain an Act of the Legislature respecting the admission of Foreigners in this Commonwealth - and also a modification of the articles of agreement - agreeably to Mr. Binghams memorial on that subject. Says if he can get these two points passed, it will help their speculation. Says some persons from Philadelphia put in an application to purchase a million acres between the Penobscot and Schoodie Rivers. The committee said they were unsure if they had the land to sell. Hopes Knox and Bingham will take measures to pay his [Dollar sign]5,200 note which is due 29 April. Mentions the present situation in Europe makes for good speculating prospects. Informs that other notes are coming due next week for the purchase of Mount Desert from Gregorie. Postscript suggests selling their last purchase if they can make a profit.
