To Thomas Jefferson from David Gelston, 8 February 1809

Dear Sir,
In looking over my memorandums of the past year, I find a payment of $4.68 in June last for duties on a plough, since which, I have paid freight for the same from Nantz $4.40 making $9.08 which when convenient you will be pleased to hand to my friend Gen: John Smith—
very truly your’s
