George Washington to James Duane, 14 May 1780

George Washington to James Duane

Morristown [New Jersey] May 14, 1780. Proposes that a small committee with all necessary power, rather than Congress, should handle proposed cooperation with French fleet and army. Believes that “we shall probably fix the independence of America if we succeed.” Would like to see Philip Schuyler, Robert R. Livingston, and James Duane on committee.
