Webber, a merchant from London, discusses business with Knox. Commenting on an unpaid debt owed to him by Samuel Ogden, writes, "Respecting Mr Ogden he alone is responsible for any alteration that may have taken place in the paper currency of N Jersey... his engagements not being fulfilled in point of time has been a very great disappointment to us... " Requests Knox to obtain the money Ogden owes and transmit it to Webber. Also notes an outstanding debt owed by William, Henry's brother. Notes that Mrs. Harwood (Hannah Flucker Harwood), Lucy Knox's sister, "has been but poorly but now is better." Includes a "post paid" stamp.
