Asks Knox to send him printing ink immediately. Discusses the contraband tea Knox is selling for him (see also GLC02437.00171, GLC02437.00178, and GLC02437.00181). Indicates that his home is open to Knox and his wife if they travel to the New York region. On the second page is a note and receipt for Dr. M.B. Goldthwait, which Rivington hopes will "produce the balance due to me." Rivington was a bookseller, printer, and journalist who came to America in 1760. He published Rivington's New-York Gazetteer.
