JAY TO THOMAS JEFFERSON. 365
gards to her; my love to Master Peter, the grave Maud and
the sprightly little French girl; compliments to Lady Kitty,
and to all the other ladies from whom I received particular
attentions whilst at New York, and do me the favour to let
me hear from you by the first opportunity.
This letter will be delivered to you by Mr. Ames, the
Suffolk Representative, a young Gentleman of an amiable
character and very good abilities. He was so good as to
offer to take charge of any letters I might have for New
York. I have embraced this opportunity to present my
little friend Maud with a brooch which I hope may be
pleasing and usefull to her.
Mr. Adams joins me in affectionate regards to Mr. Jay
and best wishes for your health and happiness. Be assured
I am, my dear Madam, with Sentiments of esteem and
Regard,
Your Friend and Humble Servant
Abigail Adams.

Many members of the new Congress are now here,
but not a sufficient number of both houses to form
quorums. There is, nevertheless, reason to expect
that both houses will be in capacity next week to open
