Thomas Jefferson Papers

To Thomas Jefferson from John Smith, 10 August 1806

Cincinnati August 10th 1806

Sir

It is believed that Col Sandford of Kentucky has lost his Election, by voting with J Randolph against the passage of the Bill prohibiting certain articles of British manufactory, and that a Mr Johnson is the Successful Candidate. We shall know oficially to morrow. Thus you see the attatchment of the public sentiment even in this remote corner to the Administration of our happy Government.

God bless you with many happy years. I am Sir unalterably yours

John Smith
