61To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 10 November 1800 (Jefferson Papers)
Your favor of the 7th. inclosing manifests for 21 Hhds. Tobacco is duly received.

Although I suppose there would not be the smallest difficulty in obtaining the price you mention for the Tobacco, yet as information was received here last night...

Burwell had an empty trunk here, which we find is gone. It...

I have duly received your favor of the 16th. and have in compliance therewith given you credit by Mr. Barnes for the 130:$ received of Mosby for Mr. Short. The cyder has not yet arrived from Norfolk; which however, as yet, is of no consequence, as it could not have been forwarded, in consequence of the low water.

69To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 29 March 1804 (Jefferson Papers)
Having been about to leave Town for two or three weeks and having been desirous previously of disposing of your Tobacco—I was to day induced to offer it at 42/., altho’ I did once hope, I might have done something better with it. even that however I could not obtain—partly I believe in consequence of late advices from England, which are somewhat unfavorable; those from France however I did...
