• [JAMES MADISON] 1801 LETTER1801
  [JAMES MADISON] 1801 LETTER1801 letter of introduction for Jacob Mayer, Esquire, to meet with James Madison, then secretary of State to Thomas Jefferson. Mayer became U. S. consul to the port of Cap-Francais in 1796 and was removed from office in May 1800. Letters held in the National Archive document the political intrigue surrounding Mayer. Once Edward Stevens was confirmed as Consul General to Saint-Domingue he sailed for the West Indies aboard the Kingston, heavily laden with provisions and luxury items. Part of the cargo was consigned to the representative of a Haitian General, part was consigned to Mayer, and the bulk went to Stevens to help pay for the cost of the endeavor. Mayer accused Stevens of exploiting his position to benefit himself and then Secretary of State Timothy Pickering. The Philadelphia Aurora broke the story of the scandal prompting George Washington to inquire about the veracity of the accusations. Pickering tried to undermine Mayer's credibility to President John Adams in a letter saying, "The unfitness of Mr. Mayer to hold the office of Consul seems so apparent to the Secretary he has thought it to be his duty to accompany this communication with the recommendations he finds in his file." This letter written by an unidentified author says Mayer "will visit the seat of government for the purpose of communicating with the administration on the subject of our affairs in that quarter.", referring to the scandal with Stevens. The back of the letter is inscribed "My letter of introduction of Jacob Mayer to James Maddison Esquire Secretary of State May 9th 1801 Copy. Madison's name is misspelled throughout.

RESEARCH FOR THIS REPO...+Portrait of an elderly gentleman, early 19th C., oil on canvas. A plaque attached to the 20th C. frame now with this portrait identifies the sitter as James Madison and the artist as Purviance. Research for this report has revealed that the sitter does not resemble other known images of James Madison who is repeatedly portrayed in lifetime portraits with a hairline that has a pronounced widow's peak, and often wears a powdered wig. Research did not uncover an artist named Purviance although a prominent family with the surname Purviance moved in Presidential circles. John Henry Purviance served as the secretary and interpreter to the James Monroe mission to France, 1794-1796, and secretary of the American legation in London, 1804-1810; This portrait has been relined although the early stretchers were kept; it is in a 20th C. frame. ss: 23 1/2 x 18 1/2 [Provenance: Typed label verso has provenance of purchase in 1930s by O.
