From John Adams to Samuel Dexter, 24 July 1800
Quincy July 24th 1800
Dear Sir
I inclose a petition of Mr. Joseph Morgan & a letter from Mr. John Brown of Providence for your examination. I perceive Mr. Morgan has an inclination to be Superintendent at Springfield. But it is not yet certain there will be a vacancy there & if it were I know not what other candidates may be on your lists
With great regard
