From Thomas Jefferson to Jacob Swope, 31 March 1826
Sir
I do not recollect ever to have known any person of the name of Swope mentioned in your letter of Feb. 18. if I have, I have compleatly forgotten him, that would not be wonderful at the age of 83 and of a circumstance of 50. years ago. with regret that I cannot answer your enquiries I tender you my best wishes and respects.
Th: Jefferson
