Jonathan Brunt was a printer of Georgetown. Two years previously to the publication of this pamphlet, on October 25, 1802, he wrote from
that address to Jefferson: “Last November I addressed a Pamphlet to you, from Schenectady, near Albany, (N. Y. S.) which I hope you received. As I have
followed the Printing-Business in America without much success, thro’ the minds of the people being somewhat contaminated
with
corrupt speculations; (which is not actuated by a principle of laudable enterprize in
honest Industry;) I hoped you would not be displeased if I enquired of you, if it would be practicable to get a place as a writer or copyist
under your Government.”

This pamphlet in his own defence provides important source material for the study of the relations between the United States and the Barbary States.
