Thomas Jefferson Papers

To Thomas Jefferson from Bernard Peyton, 20 November 1823

Richd 20 Nov. 1823

Dear Sir,

I this day send you, by S. Gilleats Boat, seven bundles Nail rods, in place of those formerly sent, & returned, which I hope will prove of the sizes wanted, they are furnished by your memorandum, by an Iron monger—I am not a judge of their sizes myself—. Those returned are so extremely injured & defaced, that some loss will be encountered, in the exchange, tho’ not yet ascertained.

You have not sent Blanks for the renewal of your notes at the several Banks.

With great respect Dr sir Yours very Truly

Bernard Peyton
