15 May 1835
Madison, James (1751-1836)
Letter signed
Title: to John Brown
Sends Brown, a former Kentucky senator, a copy of letter from Madison to Mann Butler. The copy, dated 11 October 1834, provides a recollection of the 1788 correspondence between Madison and Brown regarding Spain's efforts to get Kentucky to become an independent state. It also attests to the friendship between Madison and Brown and directs Butler, who was writing about the period, to other sources.
