Sir

I <loss> with your Excellency’s letter of yesterday by your Nephew. It will, I assure you, give me a very particular Pleasure to receive him to study Law under my Direction. But I cannot for a few Months accommodate him with a place in my office. I will supply him with the proper Books to read, during that Time in his Lodgings: And he may come to the Office to receive Information on any Subject. The Fee is one hundred Guineas.

J.

His Excellency General Washington
