Letter from Henry Clay to Col. George Thompson, Shawnee Springs near Harrodsburg. Ashland Ky, 24 June 1825

Thanks Thompson for his long and continuing friendship. Has heard of Thompson's "touching interviews with Lafayette." Clay expects to see Lafayette in Washington and will deliver Thompson's message. Clay also states he is disgusted with "the late scurrilous attack" upon Thompson. [Someone, possibly Thompson, has crossed out this paragraph.]
