To Thomas Jefferson from Augustus Elias Brevoort Woodward, 21 April 1826

Sir, Tallahassee, April 21. 1826.

I have the honor to enclose an explanation of the chrestomathie system of Jeremy Bentham, esquire, of London.

Mr Bentham was, formerly, in the habit of communicating to you his publications; and may have forwarded his “Chrestomathia.”

I transmit twelve seeds of the indigenous orange of Florida.

I flatter myself with the happiness, soon, of a personal interview in Albemarle.

Accept, Sir, my unalterable respect,

A. B. Woodward.
