The Secretary of the Treasury has the honor to enclose to the Vice President of the United States the letter of the Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts, with that of Captain Lyde.

7From Alexander Hamilton to John Adams, [20 March 1792] (Hamilton Papers)

8From Alexander Hamilton to John Adams, 25 June 1792 (Hamilton Papers)
You will find enclosed your account, which I take the liberty to send, lest by not adverting to the state of it, some inconvenience might insue. You are I presume aware, that Mr. Clinton is to be your Competitor at the next election. I trust he could not have succeeded in any event, but the issue of his late election will not help his cause. Alas! Alas! If you have seen some of the last...
9From Alexander Hamilton to John Adams, 16 August 1792 (Hamilton Papers)
I have been duly favoured with your letter of the 4th Instant. A warrant for 1000 dollars in your favour has issued.

Perhaps however the Treasurer may pay in expectation of it. The Question when the Vice President entered...
10From Alexander Hamilton to John Adams, 9 September 1792 (Hamilton Papers)
I trust you are sufficiently convinced of my respect for and attachment to you to render an apology for the liberty, I am going to take unnecessary. I learnt with pain that you may not probably be here ’till late in the session. I fear that this will give some handle to your enemies to misrepresent—and though I am persuaded you are very indifferent personally to the event of a certain...
