From James Madison to Nicholas P. Trist, 13 January 1827

To Nicholas P. Trist

Jany. 13. 1827

Dr. Sir

I forgot to comply with a request of Mr. Monroe, that the last letter of Mr. Bernard might be sent back to him, which had been requested by Mr. B.1 Be so good as to put it under cover for him, and forward it by mail to Fredericksburg: unless there be something in the letter making it improper. I recollect nothing of such a character.

RC (DLC: Nicholas P. Trist Papers).

1. William Bernard (1770–1841), a director of the Farmers’ Bank of Virginia in 1812, lived on a plantation, Mannsfield, in Spotsylvania County near Fredericksburg. In 1825–26, his son, Arthur H. H. Bernard, attended the University of Virginia (Looney et al., Papers of Thomas Jefferson: Retirement Series, 12:558–59 n.; Students of the University of Virginia: A Semicentennial Catalogue).
