Note of receipt of Henry Knox for 2, 17s. for rector fees and other items.

Note of receipt of Henry Knox for 30s. for Trinity Church.

Unsigned, but handwriting for at least part of the receipt is in the hand of Henry Knox. A signature apparently for the firm Smith & Wyckoff has been struck at the bottom of the note. Note declares that two hundred dollars was given, by Henry Knox, to Captain [Henry] Burbeck for rations for his detachment on 29 August 1789. Another note at the bottom of the page declares the money was repaid 14 December 1789. The note also includes a possibly unrelated list of names.

Notes that John Stevens received from Henry Knox the sum of one hundred dollars in part of rent of my fathers House in the Broad Way.

Note of receipt of Henry Knox for two notes of [dollar sign] 2,500 each.

Thanks him for his two recent letters relating to Judge [Thomas] McKean (see GLC02437.04285) and to Captain Newman (see GLC02437.04330). Writes that he will not compliment him on his public letter to the judge, but whenever he has heard merchants discuss the letter, they appear to agree with his position. Would be happy to help Captain Newman, because you request it, and because I believe him to be an excellent soldier. However, he does not believe that more military forces will be raised in the near future, but if it should happen that more are raised, he will help the Captain.

Receipt of Henry Knox for 100. Includes a signature from an E. Lawrence.
