From Alexander Hamilton to Samuel Jones, [9 June 1785]

To Samuel Jones

[New York, June 9, 1785]1

Dr Sir

The above is a copy of a paper transmitted me this day by Mr. Duane.2 You will perceive much is expected from us; and unfortunately in the situation of my business little is in my power. I wish to see you in Town as soon3

AL, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California.

1The letter is undated. It was written, as the first line states, on the date on which H received his commission from James Duane (see James Duane, John Jay, and Robert Livingston to H, June 9, 1785).

3The remainder of this letter is missing.
