Nicholas P. Trist to James Madison, 1 April 1828
Charlottesville April 1. 1828.
Dear Sir
A steady rain all day yesterday prevented my going to the University then. The hour at which the mail closes just allows me time to send you a copy of the Contract with Mr Long—which I have selected, thinking it might be the one you have occasion for—The others are in substance the same. If copies of them are wanted, please drop me a line to that effect. Affectionately, Your very devoted Servt
