George Washington Papers

[Diary entry: 24 March 1774]

24. At home all day Doctr. Rumney continuing here. As did Mr. Valentine Crawford who came last Night.

Crawford returned from Baltimore with four servants indentured for three years, four convict servants, and a married couple indentured for four years, at a total price of £110 sterling (William McGachen to GW, 13 Mar. 1774, DLC:GW). GW apparently sent most of these servants on the Kanawha expedition that left Mount Vernon on 31 Mar.
