2From Thomas Jefferson to Christopher Gore, 23 June 1791 (Jefferson Papers)
I am favoured with yours of May 20. and have now the honour to inclose you a post note for 5 D. 84 C. which will be taken up by any custom house officer of the U.S. This should not have been so long delayed, but that I have been absent on a journey from which I am but just returned.

4From Thomas Jefferson to Martha Jefferson Randolph, 23 June 1791 (Jefferson Papers)
I wrote to each of you once during my journey, from which I returned four days ago, having enjoyed thro’ the whole of it very perfect health. I am in hopes the relaxation it gave me from business has freed me from the almost constant headach with which I had been persecuted thro the whole winter and spring. Having been entirely clear of it while travelling proves it to have been occasioned by...
