- Scope and content:
-
Thanks Tucker for his letter of March 19. It has only come to hand since I was detained in Philadelphia by a long session of the circuit court. The information concerning Col Cary's executor's was welcome. The dirge accompanying the letter is in the hands of a young lady and I have not yet seen it. Agrees with Tucker that George Washington's public papers should be published. He and the Chief Justice (John Marshall) have agreed to work on such a project but they have not yet started.
