Dear Sir
I send you the paper which Mrs. De Talleyrand2 & De Beaumez3 were to hand you through me. You observe they have foreborne to insert any but females. The object, I am sure, will interest your good offices, as far as shall consist with your situation & with propriety. I confirm to you what they say on the subject of money. With good wishes, consideration, & esteem I remain, Sir
Your obed ser
A Hamilton
Mr. Monroe
