Containers:
Box 33, Folder 1799.10.18
Creator:
Lear, Tobias, 1762-1816
Scope and content:

A.L.S. 1 page. Mount Vernon. Lear writes this follow up letter because no answers were received to earlier letters ordering 2 pipes of wine -- does Pintard have any in this country? -- if so, send some immediately as the General's wine supply is depleted and Washington only wants wine of superior quality. Autograph letter signed, draft, docketed by Lear, enclosed in letter to Elias Boudinot, laminated, watarmark (1794). Not in Writings. [See draft of letter to Elias Boudinot, same date, on reverse of this letter].
