In 1779, a commission having been opened by the Virginia Legislature to settle Kentucky land claims, Major Boone *' laid out the chief of his little property to procure land warrants, and having raised about ^twenty thousand dollars in paper money, with which he intended to purchase them, on his way from Ken- tucky to Eichmond, he was robbed of the whole, and left destitute of the means of procuring more. This heavy misfortune did not fall on himself alone. Large sums had been intrusted to him ...by his friends for similar purposes, and the loss was extensively felt." Boone must have suflFered much anxiety in conse- quence of this affair. Little is known respecting it, excepting that it did not impair the confidence of his friends in his perfect integrity.
