To George Jefferson
Monticello Apr. 4. 11
Dear Sir
I presume you have recieved the sum of 1333⅓ D from mr Samuel J. Harrison which he assured me should be punctually paid on the 1st inst. at your counting house. this makes no part of the purchase of my tobacco crop, which is not yet due, & is destined to meet the following demands
Washington. | John Barnes | 360.D | |
Richard Barry | 100.D. | under cover to mr Barnes | |
Baltimore. | John Hollins esq. | 86.D. | |
Philadelphia. | Jones & Howell | 349.35 | Ironmongers |
Richmond | Gordon & Trokes | 235.42 | with interest |
Jos. Darmsdatt | 75. | ||
1205.77 |
I have accordingly given notice by letter to these several persons that you will be so good as to make them the remittances & paiments immediately. I am in hopes my Bedford flour is beginning to arrive with you by this time. there should be 280. barrels of it. that from hence & the tobo here will go as fast as Johnson’s two boats can carry it. these will be the subjects of future explanations
