To Thomas Jefferson
[ca. 24 July 1818]
I have postponed the return of the two papers,1 to the present time, in consequence of your intimation, that you would not return from Bedford till about a week before the day of assembling at Rockfish, and I shall note that this letter is not to be forwarded from Monticello. Affectionate respects
James Madison
