You will receive this from the hands of Mr. Christie1 heretofore a member of Congress from the State of Maryland. He proposes a visit to England, and I beg leave to make him known to you as a fellow citizen entitled to your esteem & civilities. As he leaves this country at an interesting moment in our public affairs, he will be able to give you a variety of information which cannot be detailed in a letter, and which will be acceptable to you. Refering you to him for this purpose, I remain very sincerely Your Most Obedt. hbe set
