WHEREAS I am informed that two bonds
given by mc to Stoekley Donelfon in
July in the year i/95> or about fix thousand
one hundred and ten pounds Virginia curren
cy each, have been tramferred by the said Do
nelfon and others, and that it is intended to ot
fer the laid bonds for fa!e at i I think
it ray duty to infirm the public, what the
cireutnftancei are under which .the said bonds
were given, and l«*ave those who are in poif.iuon
of them, or to whom they may be offered, tp
judge of the probability of their being paid.
In June 1795, Samuel Love, Jofiah Watson
and myl'elf entered into contrail that I should
go- to the S. Wcftern Territory (now the ltate
of Tennessee) for the purpose of making a
.pureliafe of lands in that Country; the terms
on which the purchase was to be made, were
defined in our agreement, and fifteen days by
Imputation were given fcid Samuel Love and
Jofuh Watson, after I should inform them of
any purchales I should make to determine whe
ther'they woold be partners in it.
J made a purchase of lands of the said Stock
ley Donelfon but not on the terms, to which I
was limited by the said agreement with Samuel
Love, Jofiah W-itfon and myfelf— and although
the purchase exceeded in price, and was not
on the credit agreed on, I thoaght the bargain
a good one, and supposed Samuel Love and
Jofiah Watson would join me in it. I there
fore signed bonds for the payments, in the fame
manner as I should have done, if I had been cer
tain Mr. Love and Mr. Watson would have ra
tified and confirmed them ; because I did not
chufeas I meant to give them an option ot tak
ing part of the said lands, to become solely re
sponsible for the payments, if they should de
termine to accept my offer of part. On my
return those gentlemen i efufed to be concerned
at all my purchase, and as I had received
the deeds jointly in our names, they when re
quested immediately conveyed to me, to that
1 flood wholly pofTefTed of the lands 9 and solely
responsible for payments.
At the time I made the purchase of Mr.. Do
nelfon, I informed him with whom and in what
manner I was concerned, and that Mr. Love
and Mr. Watson becoming responsible for the
payments, depended entirely on themselves.
The purchase I made was to the amount or
upwards of 70,000 dollars, one thousand dol
lars were paid in cash, fix thousand dollars in
fiity day bills, and upwards of twenty thou
sand dollars in goods the fall following the pur
chase. The two ibonds above alluded to were
given, one payable in O<siober ninety-fix, the
other in O&ober ninety-seven. Thole two last
bonds were given on the conditions exprefled in
an agreement delivered at the fame time, and
dated the fame day with the said bonds, the
substance of which is, that the said bonds were
not to be paid, or any part thereof until it ap
peared to the fatisfa&ion of the obligors, that
all incumbrances of {every nature and kind
whatsoever were removed trom the lands and
every part which I had purehafed of
Mr. Donelfon More than one half of the
lands, and those of the bell quality, the Indian
claim is not yet extinguished to, and poffertion
cannot of covirfe be taken of them.
This incumbrance, perhaps, it was expelled
when the contrail was made would be removed,
before the said bonds or cither of them became
due-
There are other obstacles of less magnitude,
which must be removed before either of the
said bonds will be paid.
At the time the said bonds were g'rven it was
agreed by Mr. Donelfon that he would not dis
pose of them, until it was clearly known that
there were no incumbrances on the lands. It
is not ne*effary, I should fay, how, he has been
induced to violate this part of our agreement.
I have complied with the agreements on iny
part to be done, agreeable to the letter and
meaning of my contract, and shall continue to
comply with my contraifl on the plainly-ex
pressed and unequivocal terms on which it was
made. Any person intereffed in the payment
of the said bonds may have on application a
copy of the counter agreement herein alluded
to. I have only to add, that I was very much
furpriaed in a Ihort time after the said bonds
were given to be applied to, to know if they
would be paid; at thattitpe and whenever af
ter I have been spoken to on the fubjedf, I have
informed those applying of the nature of the
circumstances on which the payment depended,
and 1 have never failed to declare in the moll
free and unveftriiflc J manner the true nature
of my enagements with Mr. Donelfon.
