Download Jonathan Williams to Henry Knox Hoping Henry Jackson Knox Will Return to His Ship and Changes in Government, 29 May 1800 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Williams writes Knox about his son Henry Jackson Knox and hopes that his son intends to return to his ship. Williams comments on the changes in the administration which I think forebodes a settlement of some sort or other with France. Williams says it is assumed that Adams will lose the next election. Talks about a meeting of Federalists who want to run Pinckney and Adams equally, which Adams will see as abandonment. He wishes rather to take the chance of being second to Jeff than to P. Relates a letter James McHenry sent to him saying that he wished Williams to have a post in the Secretary of State's department. Williams accepted and began the work, only to be told by President [John] Adams that he was appointing someone else.
