Has only just received his letter, so sent a Jacob Tuthill to Booneton [Boonton, NJ] as quickly as possible to make sure Knox got the necessary paperwork on time (likely referring to paperwork Knox asked for regarding Ogden's business with James Webber; see GLC02437.04275). Extends his congratulations on the recovery of Knox's youngest son, and comments that his own family is healthy and happy. Encourages Mrs. Knox to bring the children out to visit them and enjoy the fresh air. Written at Delaware Works, located in what is now Morrisville, Pennsylvania, near Trenton, New Jersey.
