I am desirous of Putting to rest intirely all possibility of future dispute respecting the conflicting claims in which the Heirs of the late Genl Washington and myself are concerned— I therefore propose to purchase of the Heirs a relinquishment of their claim under L.O. Military Warrant No. 3753. for 3000 Acres as<signe>e of John Rootes for Services in the year 1763— as the Law now Stands I could withdraw my claims to those lands and leave the claim under Warrant No.
