From Thomas Jefferson to Charles Ludlow, 2 July 1805
To Charles Ludlow
Washington July 2. 05
Capt Hazard, to whom a sum of 231. D 09 c remitted you on my account by mr Barnes, was to have been paid, and who was thereof advised by me, but with an omission of your Christian name, called by mistake on mr Daniel Ludlow, who was so kind as to pay it without particular advice. I wrote to mr D. Ludlow yesterday a request that he would call on you for the money, and having the last night recieved from him Capt Hazard’s reciept, I now inclose it to you and pray you to consider mr D. Ludlow as authorised to recieve the money instead of Capt Hazard. Accept my salutations and respects
