From Alexander Hamilton to Thomas Jefferson, [25 June 1793]
To Thomas Jefferson1
[Philadelphia, June 25, 1793]
The letters to Mr. Hammond & Mr. Pinckney appear to me proper, according to the facts stated in them.
The object of that to Mr. Genet also appears to me desireable; but I am not wholly without scruple as to the proposition going from the UStates.
