Letter to Oliver Wolcott (1726-1797) thanking him for forwarding his Commission; reports he will be cautious in land speculation; notes an offer from Colonel Benjamin Tallmadge for their contract with Mr. Elliot but he will do nothing without his father's approval; notes that Tapping Reeve will refuse to serve as justice for another year contingent upon another appointment [the name was cut from the page] but wishes that not be communicated to anyone.
