The letter reads, “Dear Sir, If my note for 558D 14 paiable the 15th of December is still in your own hands, I should be very glad if it could be either postponed awhile or paid by monthly portions, as I find I shall be very hard pressed, during the next month. if however it is gone out of your hands I shall endeavor to make provision for it if possible. accept my friendly salutations and best wishes.Th. Jefferson." Additionaly the letter is accompanied by a facsimile of the cover with a free frank signature, “Th. Jefferson Pr. US.”
