George Washington Papers

From George Washington to Battaile Muse, 6 May 1786 [letter not found]

Letter not found: to Battaile Muse, 6 May 1786. On 4 June Muse wrote GW: “Your Favour dated the 6th may Came To hand.”1

1. Muse’s letter of 4 June appears to be in response to GW’s letter of 12 May which in turn was GW’s response to Muse’s letter of 6 May; Muse may have meant to cite GW’s letter of 12 May rather than a missing letter of 6 May.
