Description
Pirce acknowledges receipt of Knox's letter of May 3 regarding the frigates. Mr. Green will attend to the business of the frigates as soon as it is warm enough. Per Knox's letter of the 8th, the powder will be packed and ready to transport as soon as ordered. Price has made inquiries to see what people would be willing t pay to purchase the damaged powder. The highest offer has been 25 shillings but Price thinks it might fetch an even higher price.
