Says Catharine Greene and Colonel Wadsworth have written him on the subject of Master Washington's education, and he will not say much on it.

Says his last letter to Lafayette was on 26 April. Thanks Lafayette for sending the Dutch patriot Vander Kemp to meet him.

Says Were the New Constitution to have required the Unanimous assent of all the states it would never have been adopted - But as it require only nine states in the first instance, it may be in full operation, in one year from the present time. In the hand of William Knox.
