19. Letter by Aaron Burr to William P. Van Ness

ABOUT

Dear Sir:

 

There is in circulation a report which is ascribed to Mr. Pendleton and which he must forthwith contradict. If you can not call at my house, I will make some arrangement for seeing you in town. But the latter would, you know, not be very pleasant.

 

Yrs.

 

A. B.

Wm. P. Van Ness, Esqr.
