1. This letter was enclosed with another of 31 July from Addenet to John Thaxter (
Adams Papers). In that letter Addenet repeated much of what he had written to JA, but also requested that the manuscript of his translation of JA's reworking of Thomas Pownall's
Memorial be returned to him because it was the only copy and would be needed if he was to do additional work on it. Both letters were forwarded to JA with Francis Dana's letter of
31 July (below).
