From Lawrence Lewis

Dr Sir,

     The lease from Geo: Washington to Hamiltree (which I [t]hink is the name of the tenant— Mr Lee has his name) is in the hands of Mr Wiley to whome he has paid one or two rents; I do not recollect the date of the lease, but believe it must have been given in 1803 or 1804— I have never seen the lease, or contract, but am under the impression Mr Wiley told me he was only a tenant at will I am sorry I cannot give you any positive information on this subject— Affecly yours

Lawe Lewis
