From James Madison to Alexander Garrett, 17 January 1827

To Alexander Garrett

Montpellier Jany. 17. 1827

Dear Sir

I return the check in yours of the 11th. filled with the sum of $12.000, as proposed, and with the sanction of the Rector. If it be the practice to prefix “approved” before the signature, be so obliging as to supply the omission. With great respect

James Madison

RC (ViU: Special Collections, Madison Papers). Addressed and franked by JM to Garrett at Charlottesville, Virginia; cover docketed by Garrett.
