Reading edition
TO RICHARD O’BRYAN.
Paris, September 29, 1785.
Sir,
I have received your letter, and shall exert myself for you. Be assured of hearing from me soon: but say nothing to any body, except what may be necessary to comfort your companions. I add no more, because the fate of this letter is uncertain. I am, Sir,
your very humble servant,
Th: Jefferson.
