ROBERT SMITH TO JOHN ADAMS.
Baltimore, 30 November, 1811. Sir,—
In reply to your letter of the 25th of this month, I have no hesitation in stating to you, that, at no period of your administration did I consider or understand that any kind of bargain or arrangement had, directly or indirectly, in any manner or form, been proposed or made, between yourself on the one part, and my brother and myself, or either of us, on the other part, in relation to the dismission of Mr. Pickering from the office of the Department of State.
Be pleased to accept an assurance of the great respect, with which I have the honor to be, Sir, your humble servant,
R. Smith.
