From Thomas Jefferson to Benjamin Brown, 6 July 1807
Washington July 6. 07.
Sir
I have happened to recieve an order of the bank of Virginia at Richmond on that at Alexandria for 251D. 09c which being only 9.34 more than your account, I have endorsed it to you, and now inclose it. if you will remit me the balance, or inclose a ten dollar bill, I will take care to return you the small difference of 66. cents. Accept my best wishes.
Th: Jefferson
