Sent to Jefferson on April 2, 1811 by the author who wrote from St. Kitts: “The name of Thomas Jefferson has reached the West Indies and is celebrated throughout the World. It has excited sentiments
of respect and high esteem in the breast of the person, who takes the liberty of addressing to you this letter. He wishes
to express what he feels; but his means inadequately keep pace with his emotions. Such a tribute as is in his power he however
tenders you. It consists of his literary compositions. Were they more worthy of your acceptance than he can suppose them to
be, they would but feebly testify the consideration and respect with which he subscribes himself Your obedient and humble
serv
t. Clem
t. Caines.”
Jefferson replied from Monticello on September 16: “
Your favor of Apr. 2. was not recieved till the 23
d. of June last with the volume accompanying it, for which be pleased to accept my thanks. I have read it with great satisfaction,
& recieved from it information, the more acceptable as coming from a source which could be relied on . . .
”
Clement Caines, sugar planter in St. Kitts, urged the abolition of the slave trade in this and other tracts. No other copy of this volume,
and no second volume have been traced.
