To James Madison from James Maury, 2 July 1808

Liverpool 2nd. July 1808.

Sir,

I have the honor to annex a triplicate of what I wrote to you on the 11th. Ulto.

The information I then gave you about the Saint Michaels, I believe, is correct, but I have nothing farther on the subject.

The riots of the Labouring manufacturers at Manchester & some other adjacent places, which had given considerable alarm some time ago, have ceased.

Within the space of three days Tobaccoes have been sold as annexed. I have the honor to be With perfect respec⟨t⟩ Sir Your most obt. Servant,

James Maury
