245To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 4 November 1805 (Jefferson Papers)
The two boxes of sheet iron are here. For want of water carriage, Mr. Graham some time since (I think he said at the request of one of your workmen) engaged a waggon to take them; but on measuring them, it was found they were too large for such a conveyance. I am Dear Sir Yr. Very humble Servt. MHi : Coolidge Collection.

For want of a direct conveyance we some days since forwarded 9 dozen hams in 3 Rum Hhds to Norfolk—and requested our correspondent there to send them on to you by the first opportunity. Mr. Macon charges the enormous price of 13d. ⅌ lb—although the common price is only from 8d to 9d. I conclude however to submit to it in silence, lest we should not get them another year.

250To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 26 June 1806 (Jefferson Papers)
Some more of your Tobacco having come down a few days since, I informed Mr. Lyle there was a sufficiency to pay him the sum which you directed, and that I would in the course of a few days make sale of it for that purpose; ever since which I have been endeavouring to effect a sale, but as no one seems disposed to give much above the common price without its being opened—purchasers generally...
