James Madison to Nicholas P. Trist, 27 March 1828
Montpellier Mar 27. 1828
Dear Sir
I am sorry to take up my pen, when the only object is to impose a tax on yours. Be so good as to let me have, from the University papers left by Mr. Jefferson, a copy of the contract made by Mr. Gilmer, with the Professors, engaged in England. Affectionate salutations.
James Madison
