From Alexander Hamilton to George Washington, 11 August 1792
To George Washington1
Philadelphia Aug 11. 1792
Sir
I have already written to you to go by the Post.2 This is barely to inform you, that I have made the communication you desired to Mr. Kean, who promises every possible exertion—and that Mr. Langdon has been here about a fortnight.3
With perfect respect & attachment I have the honor to be Sir Your obedient servant
A Hamilton
P.S I have made progress in certain answers;4 but shall scarcely be ready to send them before Monday’s Post.
The President of The UStates.
