27940To Thomas Jefferson from Dabney Carr, 29 May 1807 (Jefferson Papers)
I have just recd your letter of the 25th—Perry’s bond, on which you were to pay me money, was put into my hands for collection; it was expected by the holder that I should have to travel through a course of law, before the money could be gotten—the arrangement made with you brings it earlier than a suit could have done—I suppose therefore, that I may with propriety give the time you wish—& I...

Accept I pray you, my best thanks, for it’s contents—they are perfectly satisfactory— If I could ascertain with certainty, that Girardin in his continuation, of Burks history, has taken that notice of my father , which you suggested to him; I should doubt, whether it ought to be repeated, in M r Wir t’s book—in conveying to him, the...

27945Dabney Carr to William Wirt, 15 June 1810 (Jefferson Papers)
I am greatly in arrears to you my Dearest friend: nor can I now discharge the debt. This you will readily believe when I tell you that my darling little Jane is very ill, that I was up with her the greatest part of the last night; & am now suffering under serious apprehensions for her fate—Can any thing wring a father’s heart more severely, than to see a child whom he doats on, parched up with...

When I last saw my lamented brother Peter (then on his death bed) we were conversing about our father , & particularly of the motion made by him in the Virginia Assembly , for appointing Committees of correspondence—I remarked, that I thought it, but justice to his memory, & a duty on his Sons, to make this fact, known to the world— & suggested, that the life of P Henry , which Mr Wirt was...

Preston, of Rockbridge, mentioning that he had written to you in recommendation of a young Gentleman who had applied for a Lieutenancy. as Mr Preston had no personal acquaintance with you, he wished me to state what reliance might be had in his representations—with Mr Preston’s family I presume you are not entirely unacquainted—they are among...

The notice now, seems to be perfectly correct—The Deposition shall be taken agreeably to it, & forwarded to you—you were certainly right to leave nothing to Michie s honesty— with respect to the $60. I knew I could get it, at any time; & never finding myself particularly in want of it, did not think it worth while to mention it. We, of the...
27955Dabney Carr to Thomas Jefferson, 24 September 1816 (Jefferson Papers)
I have hesitated for some time, whether I should write to you, on the subject of this letter. I am sure you will do me the justice to believe that what I shall say is dictated by an anxiety for your repose. I have seen in pretty free circulation here, a letter written by you to a M r Kercheval , on the subject of calling a convention, & discussing the topicks which would probably come before...
