James Madison to Bernard Peyton, 16 June 1835

June 16. 1835.

Dr. Sir.

My wagon will set off in the morning with two more hogsheads tobacco, which I hope will find a favorable market. The delay in sending it has proceeded from the continued moisture of the weather which prevented its preparatory order. The next load will not be sent until the commencement of our harvest.

I subjoin a memorandum of articles which you will please send by the return of the wagon.

You will excuse the remark that the bag of coffee last received proves mixed in a large proportion with impurities and inferior dark grains.

Draft (DLC).
