From Thomas Jefferson to George Hancock, 13 August 1825

Sir	Monticello Aug. 13. 25.

I am thankful to you for your attention in offering to us the purchase of your collection of minerals; but the University having recieved several donations of that kind, is in a condition to proceed with them, and therefore does not propose to extend it’s stock by purchase. Accept the assurance of my great respect

Th: Jefferson
