Archibald Woods, Wheeling Creek, Ohio County, West Virginia to Josias Thompson1818 August 20Scope and Contents
Woods has made statement towards exculpating Thompson and Williams from charges concerning their handling of building of National Road. "I think Col. Williams conduct in relation to this business cannot well be impeached as he has acted uprightly and in most instances as the charges relate to you they are groundless also. Although such are the facts, yet good grounds for charges against your official conduct do exist." Criticizes Thompson for changing road, and allowing contractor to use logs and brush, for want of firmness and decision, and did not look at a place where he could have saved a spring. Thompson had mentioned in Wheeling that some mystery existed respecting the drafts drawn by Shepherd and Paull causing a suspicion that Woods was concerned in that transaction.
