Timothy Pickering to John Adams, October 30, 1797

Trenton Oct. 30. 1797.

Sir,

By yesterday morning’s mail I received two letters, superscribed by you, one addressed to the Revd. Stephen Peabody, at Atkinson, N. Hampshire, which is inclosed; the other to your son Charles, which I now send to him.

According to your directions, I am preparing the papers and business which I imagine you may think proper to lay before Congress.

I have the honor to be / with great respect, / Sir, Your most obt. servt.

Timothy Pickering
