Dear Sir:
Some years ago I made a survey for you lying on the Bend of Noliechucky River, nearly opposite Wm. Nelson's. Your son Thomas attended to the business. He showed me where he said the old line crossed the river. We then ran agreeable to the course of said old line to where it intersected the mountain-thence up the River to the beginning. Since that time Wm. Nelson has made an Entry between the lines we ran and where he says the true line of the old grant is. Whether he is correct or not, I cannot tell, for I did not make Nelson's Survey. If we were mistaken, I know it was not the intention of Thomas Love, for I recollect perfectly well of his saying that was the place he always understood the line crossed the River. I think your Entry was for 20 Acres. We got, I think, but 7 the way we ran. I promised Thos. Love to write to you; this is all the information I am able to give. In haste.
Yours, etc.
J. Nelson.

Mr. Thos. Love
Sir:
I want the calls of the Survey made by Nelson, for you told me that it began at such and such a place run down the River, and so round to the old line, and with that to the beginning. I want you to go and make out the special calls of the Survey and send the particular words to me in writing, so that I may know how to make out a Bill in Equity. You may see from the letter of Mr. Nelson that he has not mentioned anything about the particular calls. Therefore you must not neglect to attend to it, and give me a true statement of the matter unless you intend to give the land away, and send on and get the Grant immediately, and neglect no time about the matter.

Mr. Thomas D. Love,
I mean to attend at the house of John Williams, Esquire, on the twenty third day of February eighteen hundred and twenty two, have then and there to testify on oath, the loss of a note of hand given by you to me for, I believe, one hundred and thirty two dollars and one-third, on interest, given in the year of eighteen hundred and twenty, in the month of February, at which time and place I wish you to attend and defend, it you think proper.
Yours respectfully,
