1James Madison to Wilson Allen, 26 October 1835 (Madison Papers)
Your letter of the 12th. being addressed to Madison instead of Orange Court House was not received till the 24th. Much as I wish success to the monumental plan, I know not that I could in any mode, or any terms manifest my approbation of it more strongly than I have already done in my published letter accepting the appointment conferred on me. With friendly respects FC (DLC) .
