TO THE MARQUIS DE LAFAYETTE.

We have lately had the pleasure of Miss Lee’s and Miss Hannah’s company at this place. They were both well five days ago. Mrs. Washington prays you to accept her compliments; and with sentiments of great respect, esteem, and regard, I am, &c.

My dear Marquis,

P. S. Your name, I well remember, stands among those of the subscribers for a share in the Potomac navigation.
