To Benjamin W. Crowninshield

Washington Jany. 3. 1815

Dear Sir

I have just recd. yours of the 28 Dcr. communicating the agreeable result of your reconsideration of your first determination on the subject of the Secretaryship of the Navy.1 It only remains to say that no obstacle has been created by another nomination to the Senate, and to repeat my hopes that you will be with us as soon as possible. Accept my friendly respects

James Madison

RC (MSaP).
