Knox received Murray's letter of June 3, 1799. Knox tells Murray that the "legality principle of the Judges acting as Commissioners, will be decided by the Supreme Court August next." Then, Knox, believes, those recommended by the circuit courts will be "placed on the lists."
Knox then discusses with Murray the ongoing events in France. Knox says that the violence of Robespierre "and the affairs of France may near be better." Knox also writes, "thank God our pilot lives, and is firm in the good pursuit of the true interest of his country."
