From George Washington to Alexander Hamilton, 27 July 1793
To Alexander Hamilton
Philada 27. July 1793
(Private)
Dear Sir,
After giving the subject of Loans the most attentive consideration I am able under the several explanations which have been required & received from you, my mind has resolved itself into the form of the enclosed paper. But if there is any material objection to the measure there directed unadverted to by me, I am ready & willing to hear it—otherwise it may be carried into effect without delay. There is a blank to fill up, to do which I pray you to furnish me with the sum.1 I am &c.
Go. Washington
LB, DLC:GW.
