Nathaniel Macon to Thomas Jefferson, 21 October 1811
From Nathaniel Macon
Buck Spring 21 Octr 1811
Sir
By Mr Mclure I yesterday received the letter, which you wrote to me on the 24, of last month, and have written at his request, to two of his principal creditors, in each letter I gave an extract from yours; one of the creditors lives in Franklin, the other in Granville, each about 40. miles from me; I was not acquainted with Mr McLure till he came here with your letter, I would have seen his chief creditor, had I not have been preparing to start for Washington
