From Alexander Hamilton to Ebenezer Stevens, 26 September 1799

To Ebenezer Stevens

New-York Sept. 26th. 1799

Sir

I request that you will make inquiry for a small house, with five convenient rooms, as Quarters for my military family, and inform me of the result.

I imagine such a one may be found in Broadway, not very far from my house.1 I need not tell you that it should be in a situation, the most unexceptionably healthy.

With great consideration   I am Sir   Yr. obedt. Servt.

A Hamilton

Col. Stevens
