Samuel Ogden To Gouverneur Morris About Business 11 October 1787

Noted as a copy. Written in Henry Knox's hand, bearing his signature as Genl. Knox in the body. Discusses an unspecified business idea of Henry Knox's, which Ogden supports wholeheartedly. Writes, the information in his possession will I believe turn to good account, indeed I cannot see any reason to doubt its success. Says the General (Knox) will inform Morris of the plan and how it will be executed. If Morris believes it to be as solid of a plan that Ogden does, advises that their company invest a quarter share into it.
