Thomas Jefferson Papers

To Thomas Jefferson from Bernard Peyton, 6 September 1824

Richd. 6 Sept. 1824

Dear Sir,

Yours of the 3d is recd, & your request relative to it, shall be strictly complied with, I am fully sensible of the propriety of it.—My views of the subject; were precisely yours, as I now see, & am fully persuaded there is not another individual in these United States, that would have felt himself at liberty, or would have ventured to persue a similar course, under like circumstances—I am exceedingly sorry I ever troubled you about it, as things here turned out—

The last of the three french Grammars goes by to day’s mail—

With sincere regard Dr Sir Yours very Truly

Bernard Peyton

MHi.
