Private Journal of Aaron Burr, During His Residence of Four Years in Europe

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The following brief correspondence requires no explana tion. The incident referred to merits record. It would have been related in his Memoirs if Colonel Burr had not forbidden its publication without accompanying evidence of the fact. That evidence has but recently been procured by the editor of these volumes, and it is now given.
