21From George Washington to Daniel Morgan, 8 October 1794 (Washington Papers)
In the moment I was leaving the City of Philadelphia for this place, your letter of the 24th ulto was put into my hands. Although I regret the occasion which has called you into the field, I rejoice to hear you are there; and because it is probable I may meet you at Fort Cumberland, whither I shall proceed, so soon as I see the Troops at this rendezvous in condition to advance. At that place,...
22From George Washington to Daniel Morgan, 27 March 1795 (Washington Papers)
The interest, which you have taken in the safety of John Mitchell, as expressed in your letter of the 19th of January last, would be an inducement to me to go, as far in relieving him, as public propriety will admit. But the Attorney-general having made a report of which the enclosed is a copy, I think it advisable to postpone the further consideration until his trial shall have taken place....
23From George Washington to Daniel Morgan, 10 April 1799 (Washington Papers)
I had the pleasure to receive your letter of the 3d instant, covering the Copy of a letter from Captn A.C. Randolph to yourself, expressing a wish to be removed from the Infantry to the Cavalry.

Having given these Extracts,...

Your favour of the 8th instt came duly to hand, and I should have given it an earlier acknowledgment, but waited to see Mr Law[renc]e Lewis, whom I expected here every day, before I did so. He is now arrived, and informs me that his brother John (as Executor of his father’s Will) is determined not to pay your demand against that Estate unless he is compelled to it; and that he has requested a...
26From George Washington to Daniel Morgan, 5 October 1781 (Washington Papers)
Surrounded as I am with a great Variety of Concerns on the present Occasion, I can yet find Time to answer your Letter of the 20th ulto—which I have received with much Satisfaction; not only as it is filled with such warm Expressions of Desire for my Success on the present Expedition, but as it breaths the Spirit & Ardor of a Veteran Soldier, who, tho impaired in the Service of Country, yet...
27From George Washington to Daniel Morgan, 12 December 1781 (Washington Papers)
I have received your favor of the 25th of November, and return you my sincere thanks for your kind congratulations upon the late important success of the Allied Arms. I am obliged to you for the trouble you had taken with the prisoners of War, and for the offers which you make of rendering further services in that way: But the Secretary at War, Major Genl Lincoln, into whose department the...
