I inclose you a bill of lading just recieved for a quarter cask of wine shipped by Henry Sheaff of Philadelphia to your address by my order. the wine is intended for mr [Thos.] Randolph to replace some I borrowed of him. be therefore so good as to forward it to him by the Milton boats, but one whose fidelity may be relied on. perhaps you had better ask mr Randolph’s advice by what boat to send...
63From Thomas Jefferson to George Jefferson, 7 January 1809 (Jefferson Papers)
Your two letters of Dec 27. & Jan. 3. were recieved in due time. the former lays me under high obligations to you, not more for the real service rendered me than the affectionate manner in which it has been done. but I forbear writing to you on this subject till I learn how you have finally arranged the matter whether with the bank or a private individual. the latter would be much more...
64From Thomas Jefferson to George Jefferson, 1 December 1802 (Jefferson Papers)
Mr. Derieux has for years past urged such perpetual demands on me for charity, that I have long since gone beyond the proportion which he had a right to expect of what I can give in charity, and consequently has been infringing on what other objects had a better right to. I have therefore for some time rejected his applications. he makes one now however under circumstances to which I cannot be...
65From Thomas Jefferson to George Jefferson, 26 March 1803 (Jefferson Papers)
On recurring to my papers here, I find I had overlooked an order of Moran & Mattox for £16–8–9=54.70½ D paid by me to John H. Craven, and consequently that my order sent you in favor of Moran Feb. 8. was that much over the balance due from me to him. if therefore he has not drawn all his money from you, be so good as to consider this as a counterdemand of 54.70½. D part of which you had been...

Yours of the 26th is recieved. I found on going to Bedford that the Overseer had thought it necessary to sell several hogsheads of my tobo. there to answer certain plantation expenditures, and had lost a dollar a hundred on the sale, exclusive of carriage. altho’ I could not approve of this, it could not be altered. I shall certainly adopt your advice in future of having it inspected at...

Yours of the 11th. has been recieved, & the articles sent by the waggons also.

Below is a list of my poor crop of tobo. made at Poplar forest the last year. how much can I get for it with you, in cash, and how much on 90. days credit? your answer will enable me to judge what to do with it. as I am informed it was sent off in April, I presume it is with you long before this date. accept my affectionate wishes.
