Thomas Jefferson to Arthur Spicer Brockenbrough

Be so good as to send me 4. of the ground plats of the University, on account of the
University as they are to go to Europe with my letters written to procure professors.

Can you lend me a box of tin? I lack that much to finish the part of my house I have been
covering with tin. if you can I will send the little cart for it, as the bearer cannot bring it
before him on his mule.
