Description: A message from John Ewing, with a certification from Elihu Stout, that John Ewing was not the author of an essay that appeared in the Western Sun newspaper under the pseudonym Knox. Ewing accuses Robert Buntin, Jr. of putting up a placard with these false claims and aspersions on Ewing. The issue at the center of the exchange was a petition to the U.S. Congress concerning the sale of the Commons in Vincennes, Indiana, which could have negatively impacted French inhabitants.
