From John Adams to William Bentley

30 June 1813

Dear Sir

Quincy June 30th 1813

Well knowing your love of your Country, and your judicious discrimination in the choice of measures to promote its interest; I presume you will not be displeased, with the enclosed volume.

Be so good as to accept it as a very small expression of gratitude for the many civilities I have received from you.

At the same time your situation may afford, opportunities of improving the work and extending the circulation of it. I am Sir with great Esteem your obliged Friend

John Adams
