To John Adams from John Griffin

18 October 1800

Williamsburg October 18th. 1800

Permit me Sir, in conjunction with my grateful Father, to thank you most ardently for your late mark of beneficence to me; and the family. A mark unmerited on my part, but flowing solely from your extreme goodness. I have received the Commission of third Judge enclosed by the Secretary of State; and agreeable to the instruction of General Marshall, I will repair without loss of time to the Indiana Territory.—

I have the honor to be Sir / with profound consideration and respect / your obliged humble Servant,

John Griffin
