James Madison Papers

James Maury to James Madison, 5 May 1802

From James Maury, 5 May 1802

(duplicate)

Liverpool 5th. May 1802

Sir,

I had the Honor of writing to you on the ⟨10⟩th. Ulto. In this I enclose the prices of the articles of the Produce of ⟨o⟩ur Country. The immensely unprecedented Imports of Cotton, and ⟨p⟩articularly from Georgia, Carolina & the Mississippi, have already ⟨re⟩duced the prices of the less valuable sorts rather below a peace medium. Grain & flour seem daily on the decline. I have the Honor to be with perfect Respect Sir Your most obedient Servant

James Maury
