11James Madison to Richard Cutts, 2 June 1828 (Madison Papers)
I did not receive yours of the 30th. Ult. in time to be answered by the return mail. I now inclose the note sent for my signature, which I hope will not be too late. I cannot but regret the circumstance that threatens to connect me with a Judicial investigation. If the Gentleman bringing be influenced solely by a hope of discovering what he professes to seek, the purport of my letter to Mr....
12From James Madison to Richard Cutts, 1 November 1826 (Madison Papers)
I have recd. from Mr. Van Zandt a copy of his Bill in Chancery: of course known to you, and have answered the communicati⟨on⟩ by a letter a copy of which I have thought it proper to inclose you. The errors of fact which it corrects make me hope that I shall be rescued by the explanation from the disagreeable situation in which the Bill places me. With friendly wishes RC ( MHi ); draft ( DLC )....
13From James Madison to Richard Cutts, 1 July 1825 (Madison Papers)
Mr. Fowler of Allen’s Lot. & Exc: office holds a note of mine for $500 payable on the 10th. instant. From his letter to me on the subject I infer that the enclosed Check will be a payment not inconvenient to him; and I prefer it to the risk & trouble of remitting bank notes by the Mail. On substituting the check for the promisory note, be so good as to send me the latter in a cancelled State....

I inclosed in my last of the 22d. the note prepared by Mr Smith, with my signature, which it appears had not been recd. at the date of yours of the 25th.

17From James Madison to Richard Cutts, 13 September 1824 (Madison Papers)
Do me the favor to have the enclosed handed to Judge Woodward, if in Washington, or if gone to his Official residence, to change the direction accordingly & have the letter put into the post office.

I have recd. yours of Apl. 29. The discount for the next six months, amounting to $44 77/100 , was remitted some days ago to the Cashier.

In the mean time you will oblige me by having ten dollars out...
19From James Madison to Richard Cutts, 27 March 1824 (Madison Papers)
I have recd. yours of the 22. referring to my note to the Bank which becomes due early in May. The entire failure of my Wheat, and partial one of my Tobacco Crop last year, after like failures in preceding years with other disappointments have obliged me to apply thro’ Mr. Graham for a further indulgence from the Bank of six months, which I hope may not be refused. But if it should not, I must...
