Regarding Federalist Popularity in Each State
Description
Knox notes receiving the receipt he last requested from Wadsworth. Regrets possible unreliability of Board of Treasury's warrants for the pay of Connecticut troops. Refers to new information from Bermud[a?]. Notes or supposes on the voting of counties in Virginia, Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, for or against either Constitutional ratification or the election of men in favor of its principles ("federals"). Mentions the welfare of Mrs. Nathanael Greene; comments on the clergyman-run school his son is attending, and talks about both the quality of its discipline and its cost.
