From Thomas Jefferson to Jones & Howell, 7 February 1807

Messrs. Jones & Howell

Washington Feb. 7. 07

I inclose you an order of the bank of the US. here on that at Philadelphia for 220.15 D. this pays to you the sum of 206.90 D now due to you, and it includes a sum of 13.25 D over, which I pray you to pay to Benjamin Johnson, bookseller of Philadelphia, for books furnished through Isaac Briggs. it is because I have no correspondent for money affairs at Philadelphia, that I trouble you with this request, as it is difficult to remit so small & fractional a sum otherwise. accept my salutations & best wishes
