11To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 24 November 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
I am informed by the Treasurer of the James River company that he is directed to make a further reimbursement of the money lent by the individuals of the company, of one fourth. In looking over the powers for the last reimbursement he cannot find yours in my favor for Mr. Shorts, and cannot therefore ascertain whether or not it was general. he also informs me there is some Interest due Mr. S....

Having been much engaged last night after the arrival of the post I entirely forgot in my hurry to inform you that I received a few days ago of Messrs. Pendleton & Lyons $:1315—on acct. of Mr. Short. This sum I presume should be remitted to Mr. Barnes in George Town; if so I expect I shall have to send it by post in notes—there being such little intercourse between the two places, that I think...

Your favor of the 7th. inclosing manifests for 21 Hhds. Tobacco is duly received. As the Inspectors at Milton are not over-correct I think it necessary to inform you that the manifests for that Tobo. have never been forwarded to us. Although I suppose there would not be the smallest difficulty in obtaining the price you mention for the Tobacco, yet as information was received here last night...

Your favor of the 24th. ultimo should have been answered by last post agreeably to your request but that I did not return home until a few days ago after an absence of several weeks. it was then handed to me by Mr N — I immediately waited upon Mr. C—and paid him the sum you directed. I desired him to send you two copies of his work immediately, and the balance at his convenience—but he the...

It just occurs to me that I have omitted to inform you of the receipt of $:680—of Mr. Barnes on your account & $:296.97/100 on account of Mrs. Key. This information would have been sooner given, but that Mr. B—sent it to us in a dft on the Cashier of the bank—and as it could not be disposed of at the time we sent it to our friend in Phila. to collect & to forward the amount in notes—and which...
16To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 22 September 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
The long delayed (to say the least of it) business of the nail-rod is at last settled. Mr. Nicolson a few days ago paid me on account of it £20.19.3, which is something to be sure, better, than to have lost the whole. I have got 4 boxes of the ointment, and given them to the postrider. I am Dear Sir Your Very humble servt RC ( MHi ); at foot of text: “Thos. Jefferson esqr. Monticello”;...
17To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 8 September 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
I am by to-nights post favor’d with yours of the 5th. inclosing your dft: on Mr. Barnes for $:200— I am apprehensive that the only way of getting money for such drafts will be by sending them on to Mr. Barnes with directions for him to remit the amount in Bank notes—as no person will like to be at the trouble of sending them to George Town for acceptance, and then of forwarding them on to...
18To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 11 August 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
I some days ago forwarded to you by Martin Rowe’s boat 120 bundles nail-rod, 7 bundles Hoop-iron, & a small paper parcel. These things arrived about ten days ago, but I could not sooner meet with an opportunity of sending them. There went with them a small Trunk for Miss Virginia Randolph. It seems I think, as if Brown will scarcely ever pay the balance he owes Mr. Short—he still says he has...
19To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 21 July 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
I sent you on Saturday last by A. Row’s boat 155. ℔ bacon, 1 dozn. bottles of Center, and ½ dozn. bunches Cord, agreeably to your request; together with a box of fish which was left here by a Boston Captain, who did not know from whom he received it—not having signed any bill of lading for it. I am Dear Sir Your Very humble servt. I did not take particular notice of the chairs, but from my...
20To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 14 July 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
Your favor of the 9th. is received. the chairs you mention were not inserted in the bill of lading with the other articles, unless they were for Colo. Saml. Cabell which I do not suppose; the same number came for him to the care of Mr. Brown, and were included in our bill of lading—but they were particularly stated in it to be for him, and were besides directed to him on the bottoms. I...
