From Thomas Jefferson to Schweighauser & Dobrée, 12 February 1787

To Schweighauser & Dobrée

Paris Feb. 12. 1787

Gentlemen

I have received the order of Congress for the settlement of your accounts, of which order you were pleased to send me a copy in your favor of Jan. 27. I have reason to expect still an additional order on the same subject. This will probably arrive by the time I shall have compleated a journey into the South of France which my health obliges me to take. I purpose to return by the way of Bourdeaux and Nantes, at which last mentioned place I shall have the honour of seeing you, and of taking arrangements for the settlement with as little delay and trouble to you as possible. I have the honour to be Gentlemen your most obedient and most humble servant,

Th: Jefferson

PrC (DLC). The letter from Schweighauser & Dobrée of 27 Jan. and its enclosure, of which the present is an acknowledgement, have not been found, but the letter was recorded in SJL as having been received on 31 Jan. 1787.
