Letter to James Madison, 1817 November 24.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/70716504

Cooper informs Madison that he has lost his situation at the College of William and Mary while waiting for a reply from Jefferson about a position in Charlottesville. He would still like employment as a classical tutor and before he writes to a gentleman in Lynchburg about a position would like a reply from Jefferson. He notes that an Edwin Madison is learning French and reading the classics as well as reading law, therefore he has refused him admittance to his scientific lectures as he needs to concentrate on the former.
