To James Madison

July 28. 93

Your last was of June 29. acknoledging mine of the 17th. Since that I wrote you June 23. 29. July 1. 7. 14. and 22.—I have only time to mention the death of Roger Sherman. Adieu.

PrC (DLC); unsigned; conjoined to PrC of other letter to Madison of this date. Tr (ViU: Edgehill-Randolph Papers); incomplete 19th-century copy; conjoined to Tr of other letter to Madison of this date. Only one of the two letters of this date to Madison is recorded in SJL. After letterpressing the sheet on which he wrote them, TJ evidently cut it in two and sent the missives separately, this first note probably covering the newspaper mentioned in the second.

TJ’s letter of July 1. to Madison is recorded in SJL but has not been found.
