ALS signed “Jas. Monroe,” one page both sides, 7 x 9, Richmond, July 28, 1802. Letter to an unidentified gentleman. In full: “I did not answer yr very friendly letter relative to the accommodation you wd give me in may sooner, because it was previously necessary to confer with the person for whom I intended it, to ascertain whether he cod. wait that term. I have had the conference and find that he will cheerfully wait the time desired. I shall therefore accept with pleasure this testimony of your friendship.

The subject of amendments was a delicate one, with a view to the ultimate success of any proposition from this State. Propositions of amendment were carried in the H. of Delegates, and finally postponed for present in the Senate, on the idea that the delay might contribute more to the advancement of the object that their adoption immediately. I will forward you a copy of the amendments as soon as I can get them copied.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds, a horizontal fold through signature, and some light show-through from writing on opposing sides.
