Having visited my family after my return from Lake Erie, I now proceed to finish the line of division between the Certificate and donation lands and lay out the residue of the Lots in district No. 1, and as it will be attended with Considerable expence, beg Council would please to direct the payment of my wages for assisting in compleating the Western Boundary.

I have the honor to be, Gentlemen, your most obedient and very Humble Servant,
