James Madison to John Drayton, ca. 1 May 1809
¶ To John Drayton
Letter not found. Ca. 1 May 1809. Thanks Governor Drayton for sending a copy of his View of South Carolina and would like to see a similar work from each state. “Examples such as yours cannot be without effect in promoting the desireable result” (extract from Parke-Bernet Catalogue No. 2235 [1963], which offered letter for sale).
