Declares that the papers he and Winslow have on the claim of Mrs. [possibly Sarah] Waldo on the Waldo estate are likely all the papers that exist. Discusses Mrs. Waldo's claim, and asks that Winslow, his brother [Samuel Winslow], and his cousin [Isaac Winslow, Sr.] get all their papers on the subject in order, as Knox will be visiting and would like to meet with them about it. Also discusses claims on the Muscongus patent by the Plymouth Company, as well as monies owed on the Muscongus patent.
