MS (DLC: TJ Papers, 204:36420–1); entirely in Milligan’s hand; undated; repeated intermediate sum at head of p. 2 omitted; with Milligan’s note on p. 4: “Memorandum of Binding and of Books imperfect retainded to be bound when Complete.”

The items listed include prices currant: Hope’s Philadelphia Price-Current, and Commercial Record (Poor, Jefferson’s Library description begins Nathaniel P. Poor, Catalogue. President Jefferson’s Library, 1829 description ends , 12 [no. 713]; TJ’s copy at PPL); a universal history, probably that described in the 1829 sale of TJ’s library as “La Croix’ Abridgment of Universal History, fol. MS” (Poor, Jefferson’s Library description begins Nathaniel P. Poor, Catalogue. President Jefferson’s Library, 1829 description ends , 3 [no. 2]); and a work on wisdom (sagesse): Pierre Charron, De la Sagesse (Paris, 1621; Poor, Jefferson’s Library description begins Nathaniel P. Poor, Catalogue. President Jefferson’s Library, 1829 description ends , 9 [ no. 462]). pattern refers to the grain of binding cloths, which came in a variety of designs (Philip Gaskell, A New Introduction to Bibliography [1995], 238–47). TJ also had Milligan bind a work on economie politique: Jean Baptiste Say, Traité d’Économie Politique (2 vols., Paris, 1803, Sowerby, description begins E.
