From Alexander Hamilton to Colonel Timothy Pickering, [24 July 1781]

To Colonel Timothy Pickering

[Dobbs Ferry, New York, July 24, 1781]

Sir,

My servant informs me, that the saddle he rides has met with an accident that renders it unfit for use. As there are none here to be purchased, I should be glad it could be exchanged. I suppose it may be repaired and made serviceable again; however if like indulgencies are not allowed to other officers, I do not wish it for me.1

I am with esteem   Sir   Your most Obed

A Hamilton

July 24th.

ALS, RG 93, Miscellaneous Records, National Archives.

1. On verso, Pickering wrote, “recd. 24th—order given.”
