6From Thomas Jefferson to Willink, Van Staphorst & Hubbard, 25 September 1789 (Jefferson Papers)
The continued fall in the public stocks of this country, the incertainty where this may end, and how far the fortune of individual bankers may be involved induce me to wish that any part of the thirty thousand florins not yet sent forward by you in consequence of my letter of the 9th inst. may be retained in your hands till further order from Mr. Short or myself: only be pleased to observe...
