James Barbour has advised Jefferson that the U.S. President has deposited $50,000 for the University of Virginia in the branch Bank of the United States at Richmond to the credit of the Treasurer of Virginia. Jefferson has written to the Governor of Virginia to ask that the money be transferred to the credit of the University of Virginia. Jefferson is anxious to obtain $15,000 of that money to give to his agent Francis Walker Gilmer who is going on a European book buying tour for the university library. He asks for instructions on getting the funds to the agent as quickly as possible.
