6From George Washington to Philip Schuyler, 20 February 1781 (Washington Papers)
The perplexed State of our Military Affairs—generally—and the embarrassments with which I am (or more properly speaking have been, for they are not so great now as they were) surrounded in this quarter, must appologize for my not acknowledging the receipt of Your obliging favor of the 21st Ulto Sooner.

Your favor of the 5th I have had the pleasure to receive.

On the Night of the first instant a general Mutiny of the Non Comd & private⟨s⟩ of the Pensyla line (near Morris town[)] took place—in attempting to suppress which,...

20From George Washington to Philip Schuyler, 21 August 1780 (Washington Papers)
I had the pleasure of receiving your favor of the 10th. I am exceedingly sorry to hear of the ravages committed upon the settlements of schohary and Conajohare, but it is some consolation to find that a supply of provision has been thrown into Fort schuyler. I wish it was in my power to send up the 100 Barrels of salt provisions which you request. By the last return from West point there were...

22From George Washington to Philip Schuyler, 31 March 1780 (Washington Papers)
I was about to fulfil the promise made to you in my last—of writing fully on the subject of your letter of the [ ] Instt & other matters —when your obliging favr of the 22d came to hand. The hint contained in it was too seasonable & striking for me not to derive a lesson of use from it. I shall therefore, as there is danger attending written communications of private Sentimts & my letters to...
23From George Washington to Philip Schuyler, 22 March 1780 (Washington Papers)
Your favor of the 7th of this Instt did not come to my hands before 9 o’clock last Night—It was accompanied by such a multitude of other letters (many of which required immediate attention) that it is not in my power—by General Greene, who sets out for Philadelphia in the morning—to give it such a perfect answer and approbation as I could wish; nor can I, on the other hand, consent to his...

25From John Jay to Philip Schuyler, 19 February 1780 (Jay Papers)
Altho my Correspondents have necessarily become numerous I shall nevertheless think the number too small, till your name be added to the List.

Your favor of the 12th Instt came safe to hand & conveyed all that pleasure which is derived from an assurance of mutual friendship—to continue & deserve which shall be my care, & among the sincerest of my wishes.

29From George Washington to Philip Schuyler, 12 October 1779 (Washington Papers)
Your favor of the 6th which reached me yesterday, gives me hopes of the pleasure of seeing you in a day or two.

But as the public faith has...
