America and Canada important first part of an autograph letter from Joseph Delaplaine to a correspondent in Philadelphia dated August 21st 1817 asking the owner of a portrait of President John Adams to borrow it in order to engrave a copy for his work ‘The Repository of the Lives & Portraits of Distinguished Americans’ and also to provide a ‘ sketch or memoir of Mr Adams life...some time ago at my request Mr Adams sent to me the following facts of his life which I think proper to give you as in the event of your kindness to undertake it you may derive some assistance from them ...’ He then provides the passage which covers some two pp of the letter. The final part of this letter is missing but the memoir provided to Delaplaine by John Adams is complete and of considerable interest. The first volume of Delaplaine’s book was first published in Philadelphia in 1815. A second volume appeared in 1816 but part two of it appears not to have been published – in the present letter Delaplaine refers to his ‘heavy & expensive undertaking’.
