To Thomas Jefferson from Mary Jefferson, 26 March 1791

From Mary Jefferson

[Monticello] March the 26

It is three weeks my Dear Papa since I have had a letter from you. However as it is now my turn I shall not be ceremonious. We are all waiting with great impatience to know the name of the child. Mrs. Lewis was so kind as to give me a Calico habit. Adieu my Dear Papa. I am your effectionate daughter,

Mary Jefferson

RC (ViU); endorsed by TJ as received 14 Apr. 1791 and so recorded in SJL.
