From Thomas Jefferson to George Jefferson, 10 November 1804
To George Jefferson
Washington Nov. 10. 04.
Dear Sir
The coal has been recieved. you did not mention the price, but presuming 200. D. will cover it, I inclose you that sum—a box was to be sent to you from Monticello, by the first boats, to be forwarded here. I shall be glad to recieve it by the first vessel from Richmond after it shall have reached you. Accept my affectionate salutations.
Th: Jefferson
