To Lawrence Lewis

My dear Sir—

I send you the only letter from Doct Jenifer which I can find. But before you take the trouble of a ride to Port Tobacco, will it not be well to enquire whether the debt is not so clearly barred by the act of limitations as to render the case desperate? I do not know the nature of it— In great haste I am most sincerely & affectly yrs

Bush. Washington
