Alexander Hamilton to Richard Platt, April 28, 1781

[De Peyster’s Point, New York, April 28, 1781]

Dr. Sir

I will be obliged to you to give orders to have the following articles made for me

a small table 4½ feet long 3½ wide for a dining table

2 small Kegs

2 a size larger

2 piggons 2

If you can spare an artificer for a day at my quarters, he will be of use to me. I should also be glad if it could be done without inconvenience to have a light boat which two persons could manage.

Yrs.

A Hamilton

Major Plat
