To Thomas Jefferson from George Jefferson, 27 March 1800

From George Jefferson

Richmond 27th. March 1800

Dear Sir

I have duly received your favor of the 20th. inclosing $:470– on account of Mr. Randolph; which with the two sums of which I have heretofore acknowledged the receipt, make $:1870– being within a trifle of the sum I advanced for him to Mr. Pickett.

I am Dear Sir Your Very humble servt.

Geo. Jefferson

RC (MHi); at foot of text: “Thos. Jefferson esqr. Philada.”; endorsed by TJ as received 3 Apr. and so recorded in SJL.

In missives of 18 and 20 Mch., George Jefferson acknowledged the receipt of $1,000 and $400 sent by TJ on 11 and 13 Mch., respectively (RCs in MHi; the first endorsed by TJ as received 25 Mch. and so recorded in SJL; the second mistakenly endorsed by TJ as a letter of “21,” not 20 Mch., received on the 29th, and so recorded in SJL).
