To John Adams from Robert G Scott, 27 September 1824
Richmond September 27th. 1824
Sir
On behalf of the Committee of arrangements lately assembled at York town, and by their direction; I have the honour to request the pleasure of your Company at that place on the 19th of October next: to unite with your fellow Citizens in celebrating the Surrender of York; and in testifying to General Lafayette the gratitude and affection, Virginia still feels for one of her oldest and ablest defenders.
I am yours Respectfully
Robert G Scott
