Sale of Barracks on Constitution Island, Returns of Stores

Price received Knox's letter regarding the buildings on Constitution Island. Price inspected the barracks and agreed to sell four-fifths of it to Mr. Salman, but has not yet allowed him to remove the building because he had no money to pay down. Salman will write Knox regarding an extension of three month's credit. Mr Bunn currently resides in the barracks and owns the land, and he has asked to have the other part to live in. Bunn believes that he should be given the part of the building in exchange for the use of the block house, magazine, and forts which are all on his land. Price has given Bunn permission to continue to occupy the buildings until Knox directs otherwise. Price encloses returns of ordnance and quartermasters stores for the month of March.
