To George Washington from Charles François Guéniot, 19 April 1783
Avallon 19 Apl 1783
Sir
You stand not in need of my Eulogium—I am your admirer but it is in common with all Europe and my suffrage among so many would be of little consequence—it was not to render your praise that I inserted your name in my Ode—but by that insertion to render my Ode immortal. I am &c.
Gueriot
Physician
