{"value"=>"Expresses gratitude for hospitality, and a friendship for Gates that has never altered among the perplexities of a narrow fortune and a numerous family; describes the progress of the settlement since the first settler came in April, 1788; there are three villages, fifteen miles apart, strong enough to defy the savages, with 300 acres under cultivation, and 10,000 fruit trees; his son was much pleased with his visit to Gates; Mr. Graham never called."}
