1Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 26 September 1821 (Jefferson Papers)
I take the liberty to enclose your acct: made up to the 22 nd of the present month—it is rather a sketch of an account—as the two charges of N H Lewis —and Alfred Wren for plank, cannot be ascertain’d exactly for want of their accounts—I believe however they are undercharg’d— a large portion of th e midlings had been charg’d in the Mill books to Dan l Colclaser , who had exchang’d with M r Bacon
2Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 5 November 1809 (Jefferson Papers)
I have taken advantage of M rs Randolph ’s absence to employ the house servant at my buildings—who has had the care of the rabbits—and I observe they have suffer’d by a change of keepers— I therefore send you a pair which have been long reserv’d for you—and hope you may succeed with them better than I have done—They may be fed with Cabbage leaves—clover—indeed almost any kind of green...
3Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 21 February 1816 (Jefferson Papers)
I shall always acknowledge with grateful sensibility my obligations to you for your very friendly application to the secretary of the navy in favor of my son Mann — Mann waited on him in Washington , was very kindly received by him, and assured of obtaining a warrant so soon as there is a vacancy—The profession he has chosen, I confess, is not perfectly agreable to me, but he has a right to...
4To Thomas Jefferson from Thomas Eston Randolph, 26 May 1824 (Jefferson Papers)
Your favor dated the 22 d was brought to me from the Mill last evening by my servant—The mill account which I render’d you to the 1 st July last I certainly did intend should be, and I believe is, correct—Jefferson told me you thought otherwise, and proposed it should be arbitrated, to which, far from offering the least objection, I express’d a wish not only to submit that account, but all...
5Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 21 January 1815 (Jefferson Papers)
I expect to go to Richmond tomorrow, and as soon as I see M r Randolph , I will communicate to him the contents of your letter of yesterday — The proposition to pay the Rent of Shadwell Mill in Flour, in lieu of money, will be very agreable to me, and probably will be equally so to M r Randolph ,—under any possible arrangement we must sustain a considerable loss this year—at the present money...
6Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 15 January 1821 (Jefferson Papers)
By Col o Wood (the Surveyor) I received a letter from M r Randolph from Richmond dated 11 th Jan y — inclosing the halves of sundry Bank notes amounting to $470.— the other halves he says “are sent under cover to Jefferson through
7Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 4 March 1817 (Jefferson Papers)
M r Colclaser , the Miller at Shadwell , who is equally concern’d with me in that business, has received an advantageous offer from M r Philip Payne to superintend a Mill which he has lately erected on the waters of Roanoke , and wishes to be inform’d immediately, if he will accept it.— In consequence thereof he applied to me yesterday to know my intentions respecting Shadwell Mill ; but as...

9To Thomas Jefferson from Thomas Eston Randolph, 30 May 1803 (Jefferson Papers)
I would have replied to your much esteem’d favor of the 3d. inst. immediately—but having had the offer of a valuable property at Jenito —I thought it advisable first to view it—indeed I was on my way there at the time I received your letter—with respect to a lease of Shadwell—the terms mention’d by you are what I expected—the situation is desirable—and the improvemts. you proposed to make to...
10Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 24 June 1819 (Jefferson Papers)
I sincerely regret that it is not in my power at this moment to say I am prepared to discharge the debt due to you from the Mill—I have large sums of mony due to me from some of the most respectable and opulent men in this County — they tell me they cannot possibly assist me until they can get their wheat to market— the Rent either in Flour or mony shall be in Richmond by the 3 d of July at...
