Autograph letter addressed from "Gloucester House ", to a “Miss Caton” in which he expresses gratitude for her having remembered the wish he expressed for General Washington’s valedictory address and he is obliged to her for having procured it for him. He writes that Colonel Dalton delivered the book late last night and he may now return his best of thanks for it. It is doubly valuable to him for having received it from her.
