Fantress will set out the last of this week. I have not the smalest doubt but he will have the deed Proven as directed. he will inform the Family of the situation of the present mill, & if I new what you woud be willing to give for the mill House with all the works belonging to it I think he might make the purchase of all the shares of those liveing there. & by that means she might be set to work in about five weeks after a decition of Our Court. I was to day speaking with one of the legatees about his share he appears to think it worth One Hundred Dollars. he says there is One ⅌ of stones belonging to the mill—if you shoud wish me to authorise Fantress to make an offer, will thank you to say what each share ought to sell for
