Your favor of the 4th is now at hand, and I this day write to Colo Peyton, my correspondent in Richmond to remit you the sum of 15. D 91 C amount of duties and charges on my books from Paris, which will be done with no other delay than may be necessary to procure a bill. he has not yet advised me of the arrival of the books, but have no doubt he will recieve them by the first conveyance. I repeat to you my thanks for these your kind offices and the assurance of my great esteem & respect.
