Summary
Grateful acknowledgement of Jay's friendship and trust in appointing Bayard master in Chancery and asst. Justice for West Chester. Since his lot appears to have been cast in country life, he considers such employs as Jay has conferred upon him, desirable only as they are useful and are calculated to relieve the uniformity of country life. Trusts Jay will find his conduct answerable to his expectations and promotive of the public good.
