Robert Morris to Alexander Hamilton, October 28, 1782

Office of Finance [Philadelphia] 28th October 1782

Sir,

I have received your Favor dated at Albany on the 19th Instant with the Enclosures. 1 What you say of your Prospect with Respect to the Receipt of Money for Taxes, is as you may easily suppose very unpleasing. I hope it will soon assume a different Appearance. Unless Something more be done by the States, many very dangerous as well as disagreable Consequences are to be apprehended.

With sincere Esteem    I am Sir    Your most obedient Servant

Robt Morris

Alexander Hamilton Esquire Receiver for the State of New York.
