From Alexander Hamilton to George Washington, 4 February 1795

To George Washington

Philadelphia Feby. 4. 1795

Sir

The circumstances of having offered my late report1 to Congress to the two houses which rendered two copies necessary & the extreme press of business in the office in preparing for my resignation, prevented my sending you a manuscript copy of that Report.

I have now corrected a printed copy for you which I have the honor to send herewith.

With true respect & attacht.   I have the honor to be Sir   Yr. obedt. servt

A Hamilton

The President of the UStates
