John Marshall, Richmond, Virginia, to George Washington, 1799 May 1
Scope and Contents
Apologizes for an article lately published listing the offices which Washington offered to him (John Marshall), with which he had nothing to do; the writer of the article, who obtained no information directly or indirectly from Marshall, "was unquestionably actuated by a wish to serve me and by resentment at the various malignant calumnies that have been so profusely bestowed on me." Original in the Washington Papers, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.
