Mount Vernon, Nov. 6, 1788.
Dear Sir:
The Count de Moustier affording a very favorable conveyance for Capt.
Cochran’s watch, I have requested the favor of him to take charge of
it; and he will deliver it to you, accordingly, with Mrs. Washington’s
and my best wishes for you and Mrs. Hamilton.
I am, dear Sir,
Your obedient and affectionate serv’t,
G. Washington.
The Hon. Alexander Hamilton.
