From James Madison to Albert Gallatin, 13 September 1815
To Albert Gallatin
MontpelierSepr. 13. 1815
Dear Sir
In my hurry yesterday to be ready for a waiting mail, I overlooked your question when I should return to Washington? I have not fixed on the precise time, but it will probably be not sooner nor more than a few days later than the 1st. of October. If you have a trip there in view why not extend it, bringing Mrs Gallatin with you, to Virginia? Cordial regards
James Madison
RC (NHi: Gallatin Papers).
