I have heard that Mrs. Byrd has asked you to either sell or rent for her, her house and lot in Williamsburg. I offered to rent it from her for $100 a year upon the condition that she let me have the necessary repairs made and deduct them from the rent. I would still like to rent it.

Met the alleged Miss Brent at son-in-law's (Joseph Cabell) and ascribed changes in her to time and ill health. Had not seen her since 1801. Heard rumors and then proof that this woman was Polly Fagan, an impostress. Regrets any trouble caused to real Miss Brent. Regards of family.

It is not my intention to buy (Anna) Byrd's house. I will take the house at $100 per year and make the repairs myself.

I am willing to consider myself the tenant of Mrs. Byrd's house from the time that Doctor Smith gives it up. I cannotg say that I can put someone in it at that time.
