To Thomas Jefferson from John Davis, 18 September 1807
Petersburg, September 18, 1807.
Sir,
You do me unspeakable honour in finding time to acknowledge having received the Pamphlet which I took the liberty to send you. Accept, I entreat you, my thanks. I should trespass against the public were I to write more,
Cum tot sustineas et tanta negotia solus.
I am, with perfect respect, Sir, Your most obedient Servant,
John Davis.
