I Would Have Been Very Happy to Call Upon You in my Visit to Monticello and Montpellier, But We take our journey in the steam Boat to frederiksburg, and Will Return, I Believe, to the Seat of government By the Road Under the mountains, So as to Be arrived at Washington City on the 24th. it is Said the frigate Will Be Ready to Sail By the 1st September: it is therefore at the end of the month that We Will make our Mount Vernon and Woodlawn Visits; too short they Will Be to our Great Regret. But Certainly We Will not depart Before We Have taken leave of You, my dear sir. Have You Been So Good as to think of those Copies, Under the General's Hand, Which, Might fill the place of the originals lost in the French Revolution. My Son and M. le Valleur Beg to Be Remembered and I offer You the Cordial Regard and Attachment of Your old Affectionate friend
