- Scope and Content
- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Hamilton. In response to Allan writing that John Smith wanted a lot "upon our side of the creek" (i.e. on the west side of Waba Creek), the Laird wrote: "This appears to me very extraordinary, as he perfectly knows I had made a point not extending the village in that quarter." About John Fisher: "I have a high opinion of John as an honest and trustworthy man, but he has one very great failing - he has as many schemes and changes in his head as even the Prime Minister had - no steadiness as to one pursuit." (The Laird was still periodically coming to White Lake at that time and obviously still took an active interest in the place): "I will be with you in May and may add another street leading down to the mills - as the people are so very jealous (including our friend of 'The Waba Hotel') as to obtaining a Legal Title before paying their money for their lots". The Laird was making plans for Allan (now about 21 years old) to go to Kingston (probably Queen's University) to be educated. "I have been corresponding with some friends in Kingston as to getting you a comfortable family to board in during the summer to attend to your education, so as to qualify you for some respectful situations (having failed with McVicar last winter). And upon passing through Kingston this spring ... I will make some arrangements, so be prepared for it." The Laird's health was improving, and Sir Allan MacNab and his family helped to support him (although not necessarily financially): "I would have had great difficulty in supporting myself, only Sir Allen and all that family were very kind to me, giving me furniture, and all sorts of vegetables and many other necessities," He again thought of Catherine: "Offer my warmest regards to your Mother ... in hopes of seeing you in May..."

- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Montreal. "I am so far satisfied at what you say that neither you nor your mother had any positive hand in that poor unfortunate Girl's act of having thrown a slur upon her family altho formerly your mother was to blame in Countenancing that fellow too much." (This was most likely a reference to the Laird's daughter Kitty. He never mentioned her again in his subsequent letters. Kitty eventually married William Yuill.) The Laird was suffering from severe rheumatism and a painful hand ("I can scarcely hold the pen"), although his "side" was better. He was waiting for Parliament to open, and until Sir Allan could "get on with my business during the session". He was still concerned about the road at White Lake, and he advised Allan to "sell the oxen for whatever they may fetch and remit me the balance after paying our excellent and worthy friend John Fisher what he has advanced". The letter closed with "warmest wishes to your Mother, yourself, John Fisher and his mother".

- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Bytown. The Laird had advanced Allan money for boarding in Kingston. He made arrangements to have the farm in White Lake rented and expected it would be kept "in good order for five years". He sent a pair of "Indian rubber boots" for Allan's mother "which are much warmer and better for winter wear than any other", and her spectacles in a new frame. In Bytown he met his "worthy friend" Alex McDonnell and his wife. It seems that the McDonnells of Sand Point had gone to Scotland for a visit: "They went all the way to see Kinnell, and tell your mother that they saw and were perfectly delighted with poor old James McGibbon, he absolutely cried with pleasure when they gave him the news about me; they never saw so fine a place as Inchbuy - they are both the better of their jaunt".

He discussed legal and financial affairs in connection with timber duties and the White Lake dam. He again discussed Allan's education in Kingston. "When in Montreal I resigned my command to government, and as a compliment was desired to appoint the office to my late regiment, and they are as follows: Government appoints the field officers (Alex. McDonnell of course Lieut. Colonel). I have appointed you Captain of the McNab Company ..." (there is a list of names for the Pakenham, Horton, Bagot and Blythfield companies).

- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Hamilton. The Laird had sold Kinnell Lodge in Arnprior: "I have been making great bargains since I wrote you last, Kinnell I have sold well at £800.00, half cash, half wine, and have already got about the one half disposed of at original cost. I will I think be with you about the first week of next month on my way to Montreal to get matters settled in your quarter ... I wish to see your neighbour William Yuill". The Laird had "bought a very good house and three acres of land with garden and outhouses for the same money I get from Kinnell, so that I may say I sit rent-free within about 400 yards from Sir Allan McNab's Castle, and about the same distance from Captain Stewart's and the Hon. Mr. Hatt's, Sir Allan's brother-in-law" (i.e. John Ogilvie Hatt).
- The Laird explained that he was losing money with Kinnell Lodge every year. Evidently he enjoyed living in Hamilton: "I cannot say how kind and attentive every person is to me in this city, what a difference living here to the Blessed Township of McNab." He was sorry to hear that John Fisher had given up his interest in the sawmill "after his trouble and expense completing it". He sent "kindest wishes" to Allan and his mother and hoping that "before this time you have got the roof on your castle".

- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Montreal, about several pending court cases. He informed his son that Archibald Wilson had signed the lease for the Laird's White Lake farm and water priveleges, "closed all matters as to the Farm, Dam and Water Priveleges ... all matters being firmly fixed by a legal Lease". (Archibald Wilson, an Englishman, had come to the Township in 1832.) "It will save your Mother and Kitty a great deal of drudgery and anxiety, for all they will have to trouble themselves about now will be the cows and sheep and their garden. Be cautious how you sell the hay, it will be worth 20 dollars per ton. I am beginning to find my liver and side very sore from travelling... I came here just in time, for my liver was getting very bad, the Doctor has put me under a Course of Mercury already, which will likely occupy some months, as he does not consider it prudent to give me much at once ... I am sadly in need of money".

- From a description of the letter in Peter Hessel's book, McNab: The Township: 'Laird to Allan from Montreal. "Indeed it surprises me to hear that Paris and Hunter had the Dam, but it matters not to me who the Contractors are, providing the dam be properly and sufficiently done.." It appears that the Laird's lessee, Archibald Wilson, contracted with John Paris to have a new dam constructed at White Lake. The Laird showed concern for Catherine (his common-law wife, Allan's and Kitty's mother): "I was sorry to perceive that your Mother is again beginning to feel her side and sincerely do I sympathize with her, for I have suffered much from the same since coming here and may likely for some time." His Montreal physician, Dr. Beattie, had an "extensive practice and a large laboratory establishment in town" together with his partner Dr. Scott. The Laird had Dr. Beattie prepare medicine for Catherine "in the shape of pills; the only difficulty is in getting them sent up - I have also purchased some clothes and flannel" (there was no parcel post yet).
