John Adams to John Vaughan, September 26, 1813

Quincy Septr. 26. 1813

Dear Sir

Not to honor Mr Colman, for I know he needs none from me to you: but to gratify myself, and bring me once more to your recollection, I write this Line.

He deserves to See all the greatest and best Men and Things in Philadelphia: and I hope no narrow Sentiments in Religion or Politicks, will prevent him.

I am, as always your Friend

John Adams
