instructns for Brick Laying & Carpenters W."; ADft, in TJ's writing, ViU:TJ [2042]; printed,
O'Neal, Jefferson's Buildings at the University of Virginia: The Rotunda, 22. The date is

O'Neal labels these instructions as a "fragment of a copy" of the advertisement that Jefferson
sent to Brockenbrough on 11 October 1822 (see above, and ibid.). Brockenbrough's docket
indicates otherwise, however.
