Samuel Kirkland discusses the contents of his last letter to Webster regarding a Judgment Bond which Kirkland signed [see also 204b]. He discusses the value of the Bond and the questionable option of selling it for 1/20th of its value. Kirkland also talks about the scarcity of a circulation medium. He discusses the issue of finances and debt in which he interweaves religious themes. To the Trustees of the Academy, Kirkland has also sent money, and he talks about the Academy's future.
