1801 February 8. (Jefferson to Chaudron). "he has safely recieved the watch by mr Richards, and in good order. he waits his return to Philadelphia, which will be some days hence, to remit him the price .... he supposes the second hand has been omitted because the wheel on which it would have been put would have shewn irregularly on the plate."[4]
