James Madison Papers

James Madison to Thomas Vaiden, 7 January 1830

Richd. Jany 7. 1830

Sir

I have recd your letter of Dcr. 28 referring to one in 1828. which was anonymous. I recollect havg. recd. the latter, but can not speak particularly of its contents. The circumstance of its being anonymous wd. not necessarily evince bad motives, and I retain no impression that would justify an imputation of them in that particular case. With friendly wishes

J. M.
