R[eturn] J[onathan] Meigs Jr. to MVB et al., 3 April 1820
General Post-Office,
April 3d, 1820.
Gentlemen—
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of yours of the 30th ult. I exceedingly regret that such complaints as you state, should exist. If any postmaster can be proven to have suppressed or delayed the due transmission and delivery of newspapers, pamphlets or letters, he shall be instantly dismissed. And I shall be thankful to any gentleman who can detect such gross malfeazance of office. You can make such use of this as you please by publication or otherwise.
Respectfully your
Most ob't. ser'vt.
R.J. MEIGS, jun.
