My dear Son.

Washington 25 June 1825

I enclose here with the two Policies of Insurance on my two Houses in Nassau Street Boston, which will expire on the first of next Month; and which you will take care to have renewed. Keep the new Policies in your own custody, till further order from me—

I hear a pleasing account of your industry and attention to your profession—Send me a list of the Law Books that you have, and I will undertake to make an addition to your Law Library, from a small purchase that I have lately made.

Your affectionate father

John Quincy Adams.
