1To George Washington from Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 5 December 1796 (Washington Papers)
Your preparations for leaving this City and the period drawing nigh when that event will take place, reminds me that it is time for me to prepare some plan for myself by which I may obtain a livelihood after that shall happen; and impels me (tho’ with very great reluctance) to intrude on your usual indulgence for a moment. And that I may take up as little of your time as possible, I will...

Since you left this, nothing out of the common course of things has occurred. Genl Pinckney sailed yesterday morning. I have taken particular pains to know what reception your address to the people met with here; and truly declare that not a single instance of disapprobation of any part thereof has been found. With general regret for the cause which produced it, all seem to agree in the solid...

I received your letter covering one for the Duke de Liancourt yesterday. I enquired agreeably to your direction, of Mr Lacolombe concerning the residence of the duke, & find he is either at New York or Boston—most probably the latter. Mr Lacolombe advises me to put the letter for him under cover to Mr Casenove at Nw York, which I intend doing by this days post, with a request to Mr Casenove...

I reached this place on the thursday morning after I left you, & found Mr Kitt & the family well, & every thing as far as I have yet seen in good order. He has not finished his accounts for my examination; I presume however I shall have them today. I fear they will be high, as the sum remaining in Mr Wolcotts hands (with whom I settled yesterday) amounted only to about 26$. The Letters wch you...

6To George Washington from Bartholomew Dandridge, Jr., 2 January 1796 (Washington Papers)
Painful as it is to me (& I assure you it is truly so) to trouble you with anything which relates to myself, knowing as I do that your time is now scarcely adequate to the discharge of the duties & avocations which are attached to your station; yet I conceive myself so forcibly impelled by several reasons (for which I beg to refer you to my letter on this subject in July last, and to which...

In the afternoon of the day after your departure from Philada I went on board the vessel bound for Alexandria & did not reach the chesapeake ’till Saturday last & landed at Hampton yesterday morning. Owing to calms & head winds the passage was unusually long. On my arrival at Hampton I determined, as you thought it best, to visit my friends in New Kent in my way to Mount Vernon, & am...
