From George Washington to Charles François Guéniot, 1 October 1783

Rocky hill State of N. Jersey 1 Octr 1783

Sir

A few days since I had the honor to recieve your Letter of the 19th April last, with the Ode which accompanied it.

The glorious Acts of Louis XVI is a theme so agreable to every true American—that you will easily conceive the pleasure I received from the perusal of your Elegant little Ode on that subject.

I beg you, Sir, to be persuaded, how sensible I am of this mark of your Regard, and of the esteem with which I have the honor to be &c.
