Writings of James Madison, Volume 3

Author: James Madison

To Jacob Gideon.

MONTPELLIER, Aug. 20, 1818.

SIR,—I have duly received your letter of the 5th instant, with the handsome copy of your edition of the "Federalist." As this replaces the copy sent you, there is the less occasion for a return of the latter. It may be proper, perhaps, to observe, that it is not the only one containing the names of the writers correctly prefixed to their respective papers. I had a considerable time ago, at the request of particular friends, given the same advantage to their copies.

I have not yet been able to look over the passages corrected by me; but, from the care you bestowed on the edition, I cannot doubt that in that instance, as well as others, it is free from errors.
