Knox received Sullivan's letter of 6 August 1799 (GLC02437.07291). Knox thinks Sullivan meant to talk about "Mr. Stephen Gorham's suit against me, instead of Amorys." Knox is unprepared to pay, as are Henry Jackson and Benjamin Lincoln. "General Jackson," Knox writes, "might act as my attorney, and perhaps obtain a bondsman for me as well as himself." Knox says he is awaiting payment himself and talks of how "excellent" his plots of land for sale are.
