Jackson previously suggested that he invest 10,000 of Knox's dollars [in certificates]. Knox was appalled by the idea, and severely criticized Jackson for his suggestion (refer to GLC02437.03877, GLC02437.03876 and GLC02437.03866). Jackson writes, "good god to think that [I] should have done a thing to cause you so much distress, is worse than death to me- nothing shall be wanting on my part to recover the notes- your sending your brother- Harry I dont know what to say my mind is so distress'd-"
