4331. LABORERS, Jefferson and.—

I
made a point of paying my workmen in preference
to all other claimants. I never parted
with one without settling with him, and giving
him either his money or my note. Every
person that ever worked for me can attest
this, and that I always paid their notes pretty
soon.—
To Nicholas Lewis. Ford ed., v, 34.
(P. 1788)
