From John Adams to Oliver Wolcott, Jr., 30 August 1799

Quincy Aug 30th 1799

Sir

Inclosed is a letter from Gen Lincoln with several inclosures, recommending persons for keeper of the light house at Gay head. I believe the Generals ideas are just on this subject, & pray you to decide among all the candidates. Capt Dagget I am confident will only exercise the office by some other.
