11To George Washington from Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 5 December 1796 (Washington Papers)
Your preparations for leaving this City and the period drawing nigh when that event will take place, reminds me that it is time for me to prepare some plan for myself by which I may obtain a livelihood after that shall happen; and impels me (tho’ with very great reluctance) to intrude on your usual indulgence for a moment. And that I may take up as little of your time as possible, I will...
12From George Washington to Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 14 October 1796 (Washington Papers)
We have not precisely fixed the day on which to commence our Journey for Philadelphia, but I expect, if nothing unforeseen happens to prevent it, to be in that City on, or about the first day of next m⟨onth.⟩ I request therefore that every thing necessary to be done in or about the house may be compleated before we arrive: Painting especially. It is my wish to leave the tenement in good...
13To George Washington from Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 26 September 1796 (Washington Papers)

With general regret for the cause which produced it, all seem to agree in the solid...

15To George Washington from Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 7 August 1796 (Washington Papers)
I reached this place on the thursday morning after I left you, & found Mr Kitt & the family well, & every thing as far as I have yet seen in good order. He has not finished his accounts for my examination; I presume however I shall have them today. I fear they will be high, as the sum remaining in Mr Wolcotts hands (with whom I settled yesterday) amounted only to about 26$. The Letters wch you...

The letter you left with Mr Kitt—the one you wrote from Shippensburgh and another from Greenbriar Court house dated the 10th Ulto have all been recd. It can excite no ⟨illegible t⟩hat the ⟨illegible⟩ , the manner, and other cir⟨cumstanc⟩es attending your departure from this place, was not more displeasing than it was surprising: not only to me, but to every one else; and opened the door for...
