21Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 28 February 1820 (Jefferson Papers)
I find in the Mill Books 100 barrels of flour charg’d for Rent in October last—and 50 barrels sent down during the present month—48 bar s 121 ℔ was the balance due to you in the last years account— My best endeavours have been exerted to procure mony to discharge the debt which the Mill has been so long owing to you, and I sincerely regret that they have been exerted in vain—The amount due due...
22Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 17 [October] 1816 (Jefferson Papers)
If it should not be convenient to you to meet me at the Mill tomorrow at 10 O’Clock, I will do myself the pleasure to call on you about 11 O’Clock—in the mean time I will examine the Mill books and see what offal is due to the customers—and if it is possible to furnish you with the quantity you want I will inform you—I am sorry there should have been any misunderstanding on the subject of...
23Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 8 September 1822 (Jefferson Papers)
Your favor dated Sept r 22 —by some accident did not reach Ashton before yesterday, and as I was confined at the Mill until nearly midnight, I only received it this morning— The articles of agreement drawn by you in 1817, were return’d to you unexecuted, and the objections to them, altho’ not very important, were then explain’d to you; you did not renew them, nor did I ask it, conceiving,...
24Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 3 September 1809 (Jefferson Papers)
I had depended on getting a Gig in Milton (which I have been in the habit of hiring) to take my Son to School. it is at present out—and very uncertain when it will return—If you can without any inconvenience accomodate me with the loan of yours—you will very much oblige me—I propose to set off on Tuesday and expect to return in a week— RC ( MHi ); dateline below signature; addressed: “Thomas...
25Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 23 September 1821 (Jefferson Papers)
Soon after seeing you yesterday at the Mill , I recollected there was an error in the acceptance of your order on Randolph & Colclaser . Our object in requesting the order might be drawn at 10 days sight was, that we might have advantage of that time after M r Peyton’s return home —whereas the acceptance is evidence of its being presented—and is consequently due at 10 days from its date —If...
26Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 1 July 1818 (Jefferson Papers)
Inclos’d you will receive your Mill account , which I believe you will find correct—The balance due to you I will make immediate preparation to discharge— as well as the loss sustain’d on the last 27 barrels of flour damaged in my Boat— Should you want more flour for your family use, we can procure it from the Back country waggons, and M r Colclaser will be particular in the choice of it—The...
27Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 20 June 1816 (Jefferson Papers)
I am much obliged to you for your kind attention in sending M r Crowninshield s letter — Mann received his warrant by the last Mail—and immediately wrote to the Sect y of the Navy soliciting to be order’d into active service—of which there appears no prospect. From the date of his acceptance his pay (half pay) commences, and could he be order’d on duty as a supernumery, he would be willing to...
28To Thomas Jefferson from Thomas Eston Randolph, 18 September 1822 (Jefferson Papers)
Although I had some days since, a brief verbal communication with you on the subject of your letter of the 10 th inst:—yet, as the noise of the Mill may have occasion’d an imperfect understanding of it, I deem it proper to offer my sentiments more fully, especially as there are some passages in your letter which I consider incorrect—with respect to repairs done to the Mill during the last...
29Thomas Eston Randolph to Thomas Jefferson, 16 January 1820 (Jefferson Papers)
I have for some time past been aware that the Mill was in a dangerous situation, and that another crop of wheat cannot be ground in it until it is secured—but I had no idea of any immediate danger, as it appear’d to remain at one point for the last three weeks—it certainly ought to bear treble the quantity that is now in it—and would—if it had been faithfully built—We have removed all the...
