Tr (DLC: TJ Papers, 196:34865); in TJ’s hand; undated; with unrelated calculation at foot of page; on verso of portion of address cover of Charles Blagrove to TJ, 4 June 1812.
In transcribing this document, TJ probably mistakenly expanded the abbreviation “str” to struck rather than “straight,” a lower grade of flour than cross middlings (Gibson & Jefferson to TJ, [before 12 Apr. 1812]).
