Correspondence and papers, 1778-1794.

They relate to such matters s the preparation and distribution of his "Regulations," reactions and questions about this work, appointments of inspectors, supply needs and problems, organization and administration of army and militia units, enemy movements and strength, condition of state militia and other army units, British invasion of Virginia, problems with the Virginia militia, his lands in Virginia, founding of the Society of the Cincinnati, etc. Some of his more frequent correspondents were: Col. Jean Baptiste Ternant, Col. William Davies, the Board of War, M. de Franey, Chevalier de la Luzerne, Gen. Nathanael Greene, Gov. Thomas Jefferson, Col. Edward Carrington, Col. George Gibson, Gen. Thomas Nelson, Gen. George Weedon, Gen. Peter Muhlenberg, Louis de Pontiere, Gen. Robert Lawson, Gen. Isaac Gregory, Col. J. Junis, Gen. Mordecai Gist, Maj. Buller Claiborne, Capt. John Pryor, Capt.

Title:
The German allied troops in the North American war of independence, and related materials, ca. 1767-1893.
Extra-illustrated edition of J. G. Rosengarten's The German allied troops in the North American war of independence, 1776-1783 (Albany, NY: Joel Munsell's Sons, 1893), a translation and abridgement of Max von Eelking's 2-volume work: Die deutschen Hülfstruppen im nordamerikanischen Befreiungskriege, 1776 bis 1783 (Hannover: Helwing, 1863); Rosengarten's work is based on both volumes of the original, but the title page erroneously states: Vol. I. The volume contains a total of 18 original documents dated 1767 to 1893; 74 portraits of 57 different subjects, including one of Rosengarten; 7 maps; and 25 other illustrations, including 2 in color (leaves following p. 162, 254). The original documents include: 15 letters or memoranda; a marriage certificate for John Michael (?) and Elisabeth Grauel on 2 April 1767, signed by Michael Schlatter and with a red wax seal showing his coat of arms (leaf following p. 240); a ledger sheet for Pulaski's Legion in Charleston, dated 8 August 1779, signed by Charles-Frédéric Bedaulx (leaf following p. 176); and a customs form signed by Peter Muhlenberg on 11 September 1804 (leaf following p. 222). The letter by Jean-Baptiste-Donatien de Vimeur, comte de Rochambeau, is incomplete (last leaf only). The volume has indices of names (p. 353-356) and places (p. 357-360). The upper cover and front free endpaper are detached.

Colquhoun, Patrick, 1745-1820. Letters, 1793-1800.
Title:
Letters, 1793-1800.
This correspondence from Colquhoun to Walker from 1793 to 1800 concerns Walker's role as land broker for Colquhoun and a Gov. Hornby. All letters were sent from London and refer to land investments in western New York. Colquhoun gave him the power of attorney in his business transactions with a "Col. Smith" (whose lack of integrity is mentioned in many letters), Robert Morris (1734-1806), and others. He also mentions many current events and how they might have affected relations between the United States and Great Britain: e.g., Indian uprisings and repeal of the Treaty of Amity and Commerce with France. Later letters mention the publication of Colquhoun's pamphlets. These letters, many of which are marked "duplicate" or "copy" are in chronological order.
