Letter, from Robert Lewis, 1793

Containers:
Box 25, Folder 1793.01.09
Scope and content:

Major Harrison of Loudon now has decided not to sell land--seems an honest man--he will get rid of tenants, but must wait until next Fall--title is not clear and he refuses general warrantee--he wants 40 shillings per acre--wants to wait until Congress adjourns in the Spring and Washington comes to Virginia, for Harrison believes that Washington knows more about the title than he does.
