Richmond, June 9, 1788.
Dear Sir:
The heat of the weather, &c., has laid me up with a bilious attack: I
am not able, therefore, to say more than a few words.
No material indications have taken place since my last. The chance at
present seems to be in our favor. But it is possible things may take
another turn. Oswald of Philadelphia came here on Saturday; and has
closet interviews with the leaders of the opposition.
Yours, affectionately,
J. Madison.
Alex. Hamilton, Esq.
