1816 - Thomas Jefferson and the Persian Melon




Th Jefferson presents his salutations and respects to Mr. White with his thanks for the Persian melon seed he has been so kind as to send him.  he will endeavor to do it justice by his attentions, and especially to disperse it among his most careful acquaintances.  it is by multiplying the good things of life that the mass of human happiness is increased, and the greatest of consolations to have contributed to it.
