The Land which Mrs Burwell on her marriage with Mr Prescot covenanted to convey to Mr Thos Porter & myself in Trust, has never yet been conveyed (I am informed) from Mr Griffin to yourself or from you to Mrs P. I enquired at Richmond some short time ago for Mr Griffin and understood that he had gone to the Genissee Country, wh<e>ther to reside, or for a time only I could not learn. <mutilated>r Prescot informs me that the money for the Land <mutilated>ing in Mr Blairs hands; so that the sooner Deeds cou<ld> be procured, the better it would be, I should suppose for all parties. if you have any reason to think that Mr G. will not return shortly I think it would be best to institute to suit in Chancery in order to obtain a decree for a Conveyance. I should be glad to hear from you on this subject I am Sir Your mo. ob. Servt
