From Alexander Hamilton to Elizabeth Hamilton, [27 October 1802]

To Elizabeth Hamilton1

[Albany, October 27, 1802]

I was made happy My beloved Eliza by the receipt of two letters from you2 which gave me the delightful intelligence that you & my dear Children were well. I shall be glad to come and receive the assurance in person.

This moment I came from Court & I fear I shall not be disengaged from it before Saturday. Judge of my impatience by your own.

Adieu My darling Eliza

A H

I am quite well

Wednesday Evening
