From Alexander Hamilton to Timothy Taylor, 13 December 1799

To Timothy Taylor, 13 December 1799

Philaa. Der. 13th. 99

Sir,

I have received your letter of the tenth instant.

Major Huntingdon has resigned his Commission, and is no longer a member of the army.

I think I informed you of this I believe in a former letter which must have miscarried.

The recommendation of Sergeants as Cadets does not appear to me to be expedient at this early period of the Service.

W—

Col. Taylor—
