8James Madison to Hubbard Taylor, 15 August 1835 (Madison Papers)
Your letter of July was duly recd. The recollections it so kindly expresses are very gratifying coming from one whose friendship I have always valued, & to whom I have been often indebted for attentions useful to me. I join in all your good wishes, for more tranquility & harmony in our public affairs: which will always be best promoted by a course avoiding the extremes to which party...
9From James Madison to Hubbard Taylor, 11 October 1791 (Madison Papers)
Since my arrival in Orange which was long delayed by a ramble into the Eastern States, I have recd. two favors from you, one of them inclosing a Kentucky Gazette. I am glad to find the true method of dealing with the savages has been hit on; and hope that such a terror has been struck into them as will prevent the necessity of future chastisements. In my present situation I can give you little...

Mrs. Payne having understood that Mr. Bullock died lately, has written you the inclosed letter, requesting the favor of your attention to her interests as committed to his hands. I need not add that in fulfilling her requests, you will also lay an obligation on me. The event of the questions on the Treaty will have reached you before this. In no instance have more extraordinary means been...
11James Madison to Hubbard Taylor[?], 31 July 1830 (Madison Papers)
In the acct of Mr Harrow inclosed in yours of the 27 Ult. I find an error charging me for the year 1826. I return the acct. with the rect. for that year. As the error appears to proceed from another hand, it is possible that Mr Harrow in tracing may discover others. I am under a faint impression that my last payment was of still later date, but as I observe no rect. for it, I shall infer that...

Since the receit. of your obliging letter of December last, I have continually hoped that I shd. be released from troubling you further on the subject of it: by the conduct of my debtors on Panther’s Creek.

13From James Madison to Hubbard Taylor, 4 April 1825 (Madison Papers)
I have delayed thanking you for your obliging letter of Decr. 19. 1823, partly from a hope that information might be recd. from Bell & Tabscott that wd. enable me at the same time to put an end to the trouble their defaults have occasioned you; but principally of late from a despair of your being able to render any service in the actual State of things in Kentucky. From Bell I have heard...
14From James Madison to Hubbard Taylor, 15 November 1794 (Madison Papers)
