Thomas Jefferson Papers

To Thomas Jefferson from John Mullowny, 29 June 1807

Philada. 29 June 1807

Sir

The indignation and resentment I feel for the insult given my native country, by Britannic Tyranny, amounts I believe to pure Patriotism, and if my capacity can render a service against this all powerful foe, it is only to command me, If it may please your Excellency, a personal conversation may lead you to know, what station to place me in, in time of necessity, any call will meet with due respet and attention.—I have the honor to be Your Excellency’s Obt. Servant—

Jno. Mullowny
