Dear Sirs
I am happy to have it in my
power, at last, to transmit Plans and Descriptions
of the land reserved for the Chapel Island
Indians and also for those of Malagawatchke
There remains now only the Remnant of the
Indian Settlement at Margauerite River,
about [20 or 40?] Acres, a return of which I am
in continual expectation of receiving.
With it, I will transmit an exact
account of expenses as well as of monies
received. Two of the Surveys even rather more
expensive than I expected, but the whole will
not, I hope, exceed my calculation.

I am
Dear Sir
ever yours
T. Crawley
