Appears to be a note about Lucy Knox, wife of the late Henry Knox. Describing her life and character, the note was possibly written as a retrospect after her death. Author and date is not listed. A circa date of 1806-1824 was taken from the death dates of Henry and Lucy Knox; states "late Gen Henry Knox," he died in 1806, Lucy Knox died in 1824. It is possible the note was written at a later date.
