TO JAMES MADISON.

MAD. MSS.
Richd. Novr. 18. 1785.

HonD Sir—I rcd yrs by Capt. Barbour who I hope
will enquire as to Turpin in the land office. I wish you
rather to confide such business to friends coming here
who can be relied on than to refer it to me. I am so
little master of my time and the office is removed so
far out of the way that I cannot be relied on. I will
endeavor to get the Journals for you soon. The
price of Tobo forbids the sale of your Hhd. The Assembly
have made some progress in the Revisal,
and I hope will go thro' it. Public credt seems to
have more friends and paper money more adversaries
than I had expected.—Delegates to Congs for 1786.
R. H. Lee, Wm. Grayson Js. Monroe, H. Lee Jr.
Edwd. Carrington Councilor Carter Bratton.

Yr affe son
J. Madison Jr.
