212From George Washington to Clement Biddle, 29 January 1798 (Washington Papers)
Your letter of the 16th has been received, & the Music Strings came safe. If you conceive any advantage will result from a delay in the sale of the old Coach, until the Spring, it will be quite agreeable to me that it should be postponed. To avoid the accumulating expence of Ho. room, and the injury such articles sustain by lying, & often by neglect & tossing about was my inducement to the...

214From George Washington to Clement Biddle, 27 February 1798 (Washington Papers)
In the latter end of Jany I acknowledged the receipt of your letter of the 16th of that month; writing you fully relative to several matters; on some of which (one in particular respecting the price of the best German Oznabgs) I was in hopes I should have received an immediate answer to. Not having heard of the miscarriage of any mail, I am at a loss to what cause to ascribe your silence; and...

Since writing to you on the 27th & 28th Ulto, your letter of the 22d has been received. I should be glad to know, as soon as you are enabled to furnish me with the means of judging, whether it will be best to buy Oznabrigs or Ticklenbergs in Alexandria, or to send to Philadelphia for them; and to know it, I shall await the result of your enquiries and information. I have already left it to...

Your letter of the 11th instant has been received; and I shall depend upon receiving samples of the Oznabrigs & Ticklenbirgs, with the prices annexed, so soon as you are enabled to give them; as I cannot much longer delay purchasing the quantity I want, and am now making partial purchases to supply immediate calls, & not on good terms. By the first regular Packett from Philadelphia I shall...

220From George Washington to Clement Biddle, 8 April 1798 (Washington Papers)
Your letter of the 25th Ulto is before me, but I have not yet heard of the arrival of Captn Tice at Alexandria. Not being able to wait any longer for Oznabrigs, I have made the purchase of what I stood in need of, in Alexandria—further enquiry therefore after this article, and the price of it, may be discontinued by you, in Philadelphia, on my Account. The Bills for the other articles,...
