Alexander Hamilton Papers

From Alexander Hamilton to John B. Church, [10 June 1786]

To John B. Church

[New York, June 10, 1786]

My Dear friend,

Being to set out in few minutes on a Circuit I have only time to inclose you a duplicate of my Letter of the 23 of May1 and of a Bill of Lading for a Sum of money by the last packett: the last I say; but I believe she has not yet set Sail. I have given direction to the Broker to make Insurance for you.

I have spoken to a friend to collect some more proper gold & Silver for you; which will be forwarded by the first Opportunity after my Return.

Yrs. unalterably

A Hamilton

New York June 10th. 1786
