From Samuel A. Otis
Washing. 28th March 1812
Sir
I had the honor of yours 26th March, and whenever the documents come to hand I will distribute them as requested, and give you notice. I have no doubt they will be interesting. In reply to my frequent enquiries I hear that you continue in the enjoyment of health, that choicest gift of Heaven. May it accompany you thro’ a tranquil old age!
Amongst the various publications by order from our presses, should there be anything that might amuse you, on notice, I will forward it with pleasure.
I have the honor to be
Sam A Otis
