ALS signed “Jas. Monroe,” one page both sides, 4.75 x 7.75, July 23, 1816. In part: "Can you with convenience send me the balances of the last quarter's salary, and wait the ensuing one, and such arrangements as I shall make, on leaving this, to attend to my private affairs, for what you have kindly advanced me. If you can, be so good as to send it, by the bearer Joseph Warren, 200 dols of which, in Baltimore notes. But if the balance which I owe you, is wanted, you will retain, what I now wish for, & I will in a few days, make up the deficiency. I beg you to consult your convenience, being very sensible, of the attention you have already shown me. I send you my bank book." In very good to fine condition, with intersecting folds, several unobtrusive tears within the text, and paper loss to the blank integral adjoining leaf.
