Discusses the settlement of his accounts. Mentions being afraid that Mr. Peirce lost his accounts with the "certificates from My Officer and the accounts attested on Oath, [since] it will be very cruel to keep me out of my interest, it will be impossible for me now to procure the certificates again - " Says he does not owe money to the public and that if his troops at the Rhode Island expedition had not been paid, it would have become known by now. Noted as written in Passamaquady, which is most likely by Passamaquoddy Bay, in present-day Maine.
