I have just recd your letter of the 25th—Perry’s bond, on which you were to pay me money, was put into my hands for collection; it was expected by the holder that I should have to travel through a course of law, before the money could be gotten—the arrangement made with you brings it earlier than a suit could have done—I suppose therefore, that I may with propriety give the time you wish—& I...

3897Dabney Carr to Thomas Jefferson, 24 September 1816 (Jefferson Papers)
I have hesitated for some time, whether I should write to you, on the subject of this letter. I am sure you will do me the justice to believe that what I shall say is dictated by an anxiety for your repose. I have seen in pretty free circulation here, a letter written by you to a M r Kercheval , on the subject of calling a convention, & discussing the topicks which would probably come before...
