Aaron Burr fells Alexander Hamilton in a duel in July, but Jefferson, caring little for either adversary or for disruptive partisan warfare, gives the event only limited notice. He contends with the problem of filling the offices necessary for the establishment of Orleans Territory on October 1. He is constrained by his lack of knowledge about potential officeholders. Meanwhile, a delegation with a memorial from disgruntled Louisianians travels to Washington. In August, the U.S. Mediterranean squadron bombards Tripoli. The United States has uneasy relationships around its periphery. Jefferson compiles information on British "aggressions" in American ports and waters, and drafts a bill to allow federal judges and state governors to call on military assistance when British commanders spurn civil authority. Another bill seeks to prevent merchant ships from arming for trade with Haiti. Contested claims to West Florida, access to the Gulf of Mexico, tensions along the Texas-Louisiana boundary, and unresolved maritime claims exacerbate relations with Spain. Jefferson continues his policy of pushing Native American nations to give up their lands east of the Mississippi River. Yellow fever has devastating effects in New Orleans. Abigail Adams terminates the brief revival of their correspondence, musing that "Affection still lingers in the Bosom, even after esteem has taken its flight." In November, Jefferson delivers his annual message to Congress. He also commences systematic records to manage his guest lists for official dinners.

Excerpt from The Writings of Thomas Jefferson, Vol. 10: Library Edition, Containing His Autobiography, Notes on Virginia, Parliamentary Manual, Official Papers, Messages and Addresses, and Other Writings, Official and Private, Now Collected and Published in Their Entirety for the First Time; Including All of T Of all America's great ones none presents so many-sided a character as Thomas Jefferson. Nothing that came under his observation appears to have been too great, or too lowly, to awaken his interest. To have awakened his interest in anything meant that as perfect an understanding of that thing as was possible would be stored away in his all-receptive mind to await the occasion when the knowledge acquired might be used in some scheme for the promotion of the welfare of humanity. At the age of thirty-two, when he took his seat as a delegate to Congress, he was already famous for his versatility, being credited with competency to "calculate an eclipse, survey an estate, tie an artery, plan an edifice, try a cause, break a horse, dance a minuet and play the violin." Undoubtedly it was because of his insatiable thirst for knowledge and capacity to acquire it that he has been so much accused by his foes of inconsistency, with the implication, of course, that inconsistency and unreliability are synonymous.
