Received Wendell's letter of 27 April, which offered to sell Knox 2,500 acres of land in the Muscongus Patent (a portion of the Waldo patent). Says he would not be unwilling to buy the land at a good price, but that it would be improper to do so. Tells Wendell that he should not feel under the least engagement to me and that he should get the best price he can for the land. Pencil note below docket says Recd from Mrs. Husther(?) Nov. 6 1844.
Received his letter regarding the purchase of a tract of land in the Waldo patent. Refers him to Captain Thomas Vose and Mr. David Fales, his agents at Thomaston, Maine, for the terms of sale.
Initialed twice by Knox. Reference's Jackson's two letters of 12 June. Says the goals of his negotiations seem practicable. Tells him to Be Snug and dont let it slip through your fingers. States that the difficulty of any one companys holding more than one million [acres] may be obviated by using different names. Says that Royal Flint can be the representative of another company for them. Says he can also get respectable names for a third and fourth. Tells him to secure as much land as possible as long as it is not over 4 million acres. Claims if their asking price is 14 cents in paper at 12/6 they will probably take 7 in cash on interest or perhaps 8. Reminds Jackson that Samuel Ogden was offered 10 cents per acre but He having resigned & cannot resume his claim. Underscores that Jackson is to Secure as much as possible on the Kennebec and Penobscot Rivers at as low a rate as possible. Is happy that Oliver Smith is compliant. Advises him to Be cool - dont appear too eager - But be decided and conclude this good agreement at all events. Does not know if there is a legal provision for the head of the hospital department, but plans to look into it. Says if he can offer it, Mr. [William] Eustis will have the office.
States that he would like Captain John Hills, a celebrated and scientific Surveyor and draughts man to make a perfect plan of the Waldo patent which has now become to me very interesting as I have agreed to purchase out the Winslow family. Explains that he is having some difficulty with the patent and wishes the recipient to aid Hills in surveying the land. Content suggests Henry Knox as the creator. Letterpress copy.
Knox writes to Price, Register of Deeds for Lincoln County (present-day Maine). Requests papers related to the Waldo patent, expressing disappointment that his previous request went unanswered. Asks for certified duplicates of a deed between Samuel Waldo and the widow Sarah Waldo to Thomas Flucker (Knox's father-in-law) dated 17 August 1773.
Discusses the possible purchase of some of Knox's land in present-day Maine, referring to Knox's ownership of two farms and a limeworks. Notes that he could arrange to bring people from Ireland to settle the land. Proposes his method of payment.
Letter addressed only to My dear friend, responding to a letter of 24 February 1789. Discusses Waldo patent business, specifically responding to the mistaken claims of Mr. Parkman regarding a sum of 2000 dollars.
