✓. Letters to the E. of Hillsborough. [ed. Sowerby ignores this listing, noting it as "Entry cancelled" though she transcribed the short title from the Great Library
MS, assigned it the designation "
J. 303." She then referenced a bound collection that includes such letters, Sowerby #3074. She evidently believed that TJ owned
only one such work. However, she offers no evidence to rule out other possibilities, such as, TJ’s ownership of the work
by 1783 and then subsequently binding them with other tracts or short works, or the possibility that TJ owned multiple copies.
Though the first possibility may seem the most plausible, the work that Sowerby referenced, her #3074, was listed in the MS
by 1783, probably at the same time as this listing was made. Thus, that listing (specifically Great Library page 149, work
37) referenced at least a partial set of bound tracts in TJ’s library as of 1783. The range of years and number of volumes
that were originally recorded have been erased and written over. So, it is likely that TJ added to the initial collection
of these tracts. Yet, the letters to Hillsborough are at the beginning of the first volume. It is the conclusion of the
editor, therefore, that as of 1783 TJ owned two copies of this work, only one of which was sold to Congress (the work bound
in the 10 volume set).]
