Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letter written by a representative of Sears & Smith to Major General Knox. References Knox's letter to Isaac Sears of 24 June. Says the jewelry that Henry's brother William Knox sent has not been sold. When they opened up the box they discovered the articles were pieces they would have a hard time selling in their store. Ended up giving them to Joseph Peirce to dispose of, as they thought he could sell them more readily. He has had no success though. If he wants them auctioned off, they will arrange for it. Says the items are old, odd, unsaleable. William wrote that he took the jewelry for an old debt. They say this is the only reason he should have picked them, otherwise we might have suspected he had been to the Fair with Moses of Wakefield. Says he has a balance of 22.15.4 3/4. Claims they are very unhappy for the injustice done the Army, as from the disposition of the People in this Commonwealth, we see no prospect of the Evil being ever cured.
