Letter

Elias Glenn to James Monroe, August 26, 1816

[35] *Mr. Glenn, district attorney, to Mr. Monroe, Secretary of State.

Sir: Owing to my absence from this city I did not receive your letter until this morning.

A prosecution shall be immediately instituted against Thomas Taylor, and if he can be found you shall be informed of the course the business takes. I shall proceed against him both for piracy and a misdemeanor.

I have the honor to be, most respectfully, your obedient servant,

ELIAS GLENN.
