1From James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 14 July 1826 (Madison Papers)
I received by the last mail yours of the 8th. inst: The Article bequeathed to me by your Grandfather, had been delivered by Dr. Dunglison, and received with all the feelings due to such a token of the place I held in the friendship of one, whom I so much revered & loved, when living, and whose memory can never cease to be dear to me. I must beg you, my dear Sir, to assure your excellent and...
2James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 22 December 1828 (Madison Papers)
Your letter of the 7th. post marked 9th. has but just come to hand, the 14th. day from its date. I need not, I am sure, express the pleasure I shall feel in contributing any thing in my power towards the object of it. The paper you inclosed was sketched with a view, as I recollect, to a prospectus for the information of subscribers, but may be so varied as to make part of a preface; whether...
3James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 9 January 1829 (Madison Papers)
Will Mr. R. oblige J.M. by turning to the correspondence of Mr. Jefferson with Mr. Pendleton & als Col. John Taylor & telling me whether any thing & what appears to have passed between them, having relation to the publication of Mr. Pendleton in Octr. 1801. subscribed "The danger not over" FC (DLC) .
4James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 28 February 1829 (Madison Papers)
I recd by the last mail from Mr Trist the inclosed copies of two letters from your Grandfather, to be forwarded to you. He suggested at the same time for consideration, whether what is said of pamphlets in the letter to Mr Adams might not clash with his comment on those sent by me. But a little candor would readily reconcile the two passages. A literal consistency indeed results from the order...
5James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 4 April 1829 (Madison Papers)
I have recd. a letter from [Giles] containing a paragraph, of which a copy is enclosed. Intending, soon to write to him, I will thank you for a few lines, enabling [me] to say what is due on the points, he refers to. Having seen no acct. of the death of your young kinsman, spoken of in your late letter, we hope he has had a better fate than you dreaded; and that no obstacle exists to the...
6James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 11 August 1830 (Madison Papers)
I recd yesterday yrs. of the 3d inst. inclosing a letter from Mr. Crozet, which I return. It wd. seem not amiss for your answer, to permit him to make enquiries of his brother, but without authorizing any expectation that might not be fulfilled, I enclose also a letter from Mr. Hervé, in whose favor I find Mr. Cabell has transmitted you a copy of a letter from Chevalie with that of another...
7James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 16 September 1830 (Madison Papers)
Yours of the 13th. was recd yesterday afternoon. You rightly inferred my concurrence in the temporary apt. of a Tutor and I doubt not you have done right in the choice made. Mr. Hervé, whose pre[f?]erence is well attested could not otherwise, it seems be secured than by postponing a permanent appt. for the present [?]. Docr. Blatterman, preferring an oral to a written communication with me,...
8James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 19 September 1830 (Madison Papers)
I inclose a letter from Col. Colonna, with a copy of my answer. I am afraid he will be startled at the Title of Tutor if he attatches to it as I suspect he will, an inferiority to that he has underscored . Wishing you well thro the conflicting sensibilities & anticipation you may have to deal with I renew to you my cordial salutations. Draft and draft of enclosure (DLC) .
9James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 23 October 1830 (Madison Papers)
I have recd. yours of the 18th. post marked 20th. inclosing the Bill of Nickline & Johnson. I am afraid the authority over us, will think the acct. very heavy one. The papers shewing the precise situation of the sterling fund, being I believe in the hands of the last Chairman of the Faculty or the Secretary of the Board of Visitors, I must ask the favor of you, to have a draft in the adapted...
10James Madison to Thomas Jefferson Randolph, 22 November 1830 (Madison Papers)
I inclose for yourself & Genl. Cocke, a letter from Docr Johnson, requesting the sanction of the Executive Committee to a course of Instruction to private pupils on the principles of Dentistry If the measure do not fall within the spirit of the Enactment (page 16) imposing a restraint on Professors, or be sanctioned by precedent no objection would seem to be called for; the object itself being...
