Since the date of my last to you, I have received your favors of the 29 th: ult° : and 4 th: curr t: —the latter enclosing letters for the Judges of the Sup: Court, four of which, I immediately caused to be delivered, to the judges present.

Your kind favor of the 26 th: ult o: was delivered to me by my Mother on my arrival, the 12 th: inst t: at this place.

I received with much pleasure a few days ago, your favor of the 15 th: instant and shall not be inattentive to those parts of its contents which relate to the subject of your application for the clerkship of the Supreme Court of the U.S. and will be careful to give you seasonable notice whether your personal attendance here in February would be likely to conduce to the success of your plan....
