Agreeable to the arrangement expressed in my letter of the 9th. inst. I did on the 11th. inclose you one thousand dollars, and now inclose 400. Dol. more in notes of the banks of the US. & Pennsylva, to be applied to the credit of mr Randolph for your advances on his behalf. I am Dear Sir Your friend & servt PrC ( MHi ); at foot of text: “Mr. George Jefferson”; endorsed by TJ in ink on verso.
I have taken the liberty of sending to your care by a Milton boat, a box directed to mr J. W. Eppes which I pray you to recieve & keep till sent for by him. it contains matters of great cost, & extreme brittleness, and I have recommended to him to send the body of a carriage with springs for it’s safer conveyance. I set out for Washington tomorrow morning. I salute you affectionately. MHi :...
Some time in the first half of September I do not know exactly when, mr Eppes purchased a horse for me of mr Thweat his brother in law, for 250. D. payable in 90. days at your Counting house. I now inclose you that sum to take up the draught which will probably be presented shortly. I salute you with affection. MHi : Coolidge Collection.
Your favors of the 29th. & 31st. are recieved, and the articles sent under the care of mr Wanscher are said to be safely arrived at Milton. I will thank you to send me by the first boats a gross of bottled porter. the last sent is good & came very safely, but will hardly last the arrival of the next. be assured of my sincere and affectionate esteem & attachment. PrC ( MHi ); at foot of text:...
Yours of the 14th. is recieved. I find that mr Barnes has made some mistake about the stick chairs. he recieved and paid for half a dozen for me. they were painted of a very dark colour, & were in this style. perhaps, if you saw those forwarded to Colo. Cabell you will recollect whether they were in this form, and may judge whether they were mine. if not, then mr Barnes has not forwarded mine...
I put the inclosed under cover to you, because I fear a former letter of the same tenor to mr Oldham may have miscarried: and I leave it open, because he may possibly be engaged somewhere at a distance from Richmond, in which case I would ask the favor of you to have the mahogany procured for me by somebody else, & forwarded to Monticello, where they are now in want of it. I salute you with...
I suppose we may by this time conclude that my tobacco will not fetch 7. Dollars: and foreseeing no circumstance likely to raise the price soon, I propose that you should sell it for 40/ for any credit not exceeding 90. days. indeed the shorter the term of paiment you may be able to obtain, the more convenient to me, as I have calls which would render it a sensible accomodation. Accept...
Mr. Craven Peyton has desired me to assume for him to you 156D .67 paiable the 10th. of July and 533D. 33 paiable the 10th. of Aug. the first of these paiments will be a little too early for me. I will pay you 156D .67 on the 13th. of July (it will leave this place the evening of the 11th.) and 533D .33 on the 10th. of Aug. (leaving this the evening of the 8th.) these being the precise days on...
I find my letter of the 3d. went too late to countermand the making any remittance hither, as on the day following I recieved yours of the 2d. covering 250. Dollars. I have this day drawn on you for 500. D. in favor of James Lyle at 3. days sight: and I have further to request you to place four hundred and fifty dollars in the Richmond bank to the credit of James Dinsmore of Albemarle, and to...
I now enclose you the Manifests of my tobo. made the last year at Poplar forest being 29 hhd. weighing 46,402. ℔ nett, the whole of which I expect is with you before this. from these are to be taken 3 hhds. ducked which you have already sold. you mentioned that you thought you could get 7. D. for the residue on reasonable credit. if you can get that on 2 or 3 months credit, I shall be willing...
