Thomas Jefferson to Patrick Gibson, 27 March 1821

To Patrick Gibson

Monticello Mar. 27. 21.

Dear Sir

Not knowing the exact date of my note in the bank of Virginia I inclose a blank supposing the time of renewal must be at hand. supposing too the curtail to be of 80.D. the sum must be somewhere between 1000. and 1100.D. I have therefore left the odd numbers blank. [on] the 4th of Feb. mr Colclaser informs me he sent you a quarter’s rent of 50. Barrels of flour. another quarter is due within 3. or 4. days which I shall direct him to forward to you. the accident to the mill which I mentioned in my last having suspended her grinding more than a month has [o]ccasioned such a scramble among the customers to get their flour delivered, as to render it somewhat unpunctual in it’s deliveries. I salute you with constant friendship and respect

Th: Jefferson

PoC (DLC); on verso of a reused address cover from Frederick A. Mayo to TJ; two words faint; at foot of text: “Mr Gibson”; endorsed by TJ. Enclosure not found.
