To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 22 September 1800
From George Jefferson
Richmond 22d. Septr. 1800.
Dear Sir,
The long delayed (to say the least of it) business of the nail-rod is at last settled.
Mr. Nicolson a few days ago paid me on account of it £20.19.3, which is something to be sure, better, than to have lost the whole.
I have got 4 boxes of the ointment, and given them to the postrider.
I am Dear Sir Your Very humble servt
Geo. Jefferson
