From George Washington to —— Nisbett, 17 March 1783

Newburgh 17th Mar: 1783.

Genl Washington presents his Compliments to Mr Nisbett. Is extremely obliged to him for his good intention—shewn in presenting him with a Hat & Cockade—The latter he accepts as a proof of his sensibility of Mr Nisbetts politeness—the former he begs leave to return. It is much larger than he wears.
