1To Thomas Jefferson from George Washington, 28 August 1796 (Jefferson Papers)
As soon as I returned to this City, and had waded through the Papers, and other matters which were laid before me on my arrival, and claimed my earliest attention I recollected the request in your letter of the 19th. of June, and herewith enclose copies of the Papers agreeably to that request. With great esteem & regard I am—Dear Sir Your Obedt Servt RC ( DLC ); at foot of text: “Thomas...
2From George Washington to Thomas Jefferson, 6 July 1796 (Washington Papers)
When I inform you, that your letter of the 19th Ulto went to Philadelphia and returned to this place, before it was received by me; it will be admitted, I am persuaded, as an apology for my not having acknowledged the receipt of it sooner. If I had entertained any suspicions before, that the queries which have been published in Bache’s Paper proceeded from you, the assurances you have given of...

4To George Washington from Thomas Jefferson, 19 June 1796 (Washington Papers)
In Bache’s Aurora of the 9th inst. which came here by the last post a paper appears which, having been confided, as I presume, to but few hands, makes it truly wonderful how it should have got there. I cannot be satisfied as to my own part till I relieve my mind by declaring, and I attest every thing sacred & honorable to the declaration, that it has got there neither thro’ me nor the paper...

6From George Washington to Thomas Jefferson, 4 October 1795 (Washington Papers)
Your letter of the 12th ulto, after travelling to Philadelphia and back again, was received by me, at this place, the 1st instant. The letter from Madame de Chastellux to me, is short—referring to the one she has written to you for particulars respecting herself & infant son. Her application to me is unquestionably misplaced, and to Congress it would certainly be unavailing, as the Chevalier...

The last post brought me a letter from Madame de Chastellux, covering the enclosed, which she informs me is on the same subject with hers to me, and that she refers you to me for particulars. I had very little acquaintance with her personally in Paris. I understood she was the daughter of an English general Plunket in the Austrian service, entirely without fortune. Chastellux is said to have...

10From George Washington to Thomas Jefferson, 30 March 1795 (Washington Papers)
A short time since I wrote to you, and hope the letter got safe to your hands. If this should reach them, it is intended to introduce Mr Strickland, of Yorkshire in England, to your civilities and attention—His merits, independent of the recommendation of Sir Jno. Sinclair, will entitle him to them. From Monticello, Mr Strickland intends crossing the ridge for Winchester; and to return to this...
