41To Thomas Jefferson from James Monroe, [22] October 1797 (Jefferson Papers)
I shall send Mr. Bache tomorrow about two thirds of my narrative and the residue by the next post. I have nothing from him by the last which gives cause to apprehend either that his people or himself are sick of the yellow fever. It becomes necessary that I give the publication a title, and therefore I wish your opinion upon that point. I subjoin one which is subject to your correction. You...

I returned here lately from Albemarle to which quarter I made a visit of two days last week. While there I saw P. Carr and conferr’d with him on the subject of my last to you.
