Letter signed Thomas Jefferson, Monticello, to Judge Archibald Stuart. The success of Mr. Cosby’s application will depend on the terms Cosby offers. Jefferson adds, "The land north of the Carolina line in the bend of Tennessee, Ohio and Mississippi were always deemed the property of the Chickasaws, although the Cherokees set up some vague claims in that quarter." Jefferson adds that he and Mr. Henry tried to secure that land for Virginia claimants and that he had directed Gen. Clark to erect a fort on the first bluff above longitude 36° 30' on the bank of the Mississippi. (2 pages, polygraph), 1819 Mar 15
