The object of this letter is to give you the name & place of residence of the gentleman on whose account I spoke to you this morning, as they may escape your recollection.

"William Griffith, Burlington, New Jersey." Sincerely yrs

I again trouble you with one of our Circulars under the idea that Mrs Tod qualified as Extrx of her first husband, & if so, you & she will, I concieve be the proper parties to the amicable suit proposed to be brought. In this case, it is important I should have from you in answer to the above without loss of time, as I wish the accounts to be closed & a decree obtained this year.

Since the rect of your favor of the 29 June, I have again examined the papers respecting the Kentucky land with a view to the fact you allude to, and find that Lees bond for a conveyance to Genl W. bears date in [17]88 long before the deed to Banks. But upon an attentive consideration of the case of Brown vs. Jackson, I am by no means satisfied that it rules this case.

     An answer to Mr Banks' offer of a compromise, respecting the Kentucky land viz he to take one half & the heirs the other, has been delayed until you could make such enquiries as to satisfy yourself respecting his lette[r]. Something should be definitively decided upon without further delay, & I must beg the favor of you to let me hear from you on this subject as soon as possible.
