Summary
Agrees with John Jay's sentiments respecting history - "festina lente." Hopes to carry Trumbull's history down to the present time. Would appreciate a memorandum from John Jay of books he would consider useful, and also collections of state and private papers, including those in his own possession. Would also like to know his opinion on the future state of the church and the world.
