| Sir | Washington 27 August 1825 |
Mr. Rabello being about to visit Boston and your residence, and being very desirous of the honor of your acquaintance, I take particular satisfaction in introducing him to you as the Chargé des Affaires of the Emperor of Brazil and as a gentleman whose official and private intercourse with me has inspired me with high respect for him.
I have the honor to be / with great respect / Your obedient Servant
