Serving as Massachusetts Representative, Webster informs United States District Court Judge Davis that the subject of District Judges' salaries has been brought forward (likely in the House of Representatives), and he plans to report a Bill on the topic. Discusses his 8 December 1823 motion in Congress for the appropriation of money to send an American envoy to Greece in support of revolutionaries fighting in Greece's 1821-1833 War of Independence. Seal has been partially torn off causing text loss on page three.
