Thomas Jefferson Papers

From Thomas Jefferson to William H. Morgan, 4 February 1809

Washington Feb. 4. 09.

Sir

I have only a bust portrait of mr Madison, that is done by Pine formerly of Philadelphia, & is but an indiffent one, and it is at Monticello. it bears no comparison, in point of merit with the one done by Stewart, in possession of mr Madison himself. I know but of that single one existing, but there may be other copies. of this I am not able to inform you. I salute you with respect.
