W.F. De Knight. Esqr  July 25th 66

Dear Sir

I issued a warrant against Andrew Norvelle, for mal treatment towards Patrick Scott. I tried it on the 23d. Settled this dificulty by causing Norvelle to pay Patrick for his crops and for him Patrick to leave Norvelle's place. Patrick had taken his family, where he formely [[formerly]] lived, where I have no doubt he will do much better than with Norvelle. I have known Patrick for many years and believe him to be a honorable and good man. 

Very Respectully
