Thomas Jefferson to Arthur S. Brockenbrough, 25 February 1824

To Arthur S. Brockenbrough

Feb. 25. 24.

Th: Jefferson asks from mr Brockenbrough the favor of 1200. bricks, all clinkers, and if he can place them to the account of Capt Perry it will be an accomodation perhaps all round.

RC (ViU: TJP-PP); written on a small scrap; dateline at foot of text; addressed: “Mr Brockenbrough”; with apparently unrelated calculations by Brockenbrough on verso; endorsed by Brockenbrough. Not recorded in SJL.
