My Dearest Friend

I pray you to make such Arrangements, or at least to be casting in your Mind a Plan for bringing all the females you may want with you.

I cannot however Say any Thing clearly untill I know that I shall have a House. If the Congress dont find me furniture I shall have no House, untill the salary shall enable me to procure some. I will not run in Debt. A Comtee. have it under Consideration. As soon as I know I shall write you.

We begin to fear that Peace is at a distance. I am with all Affection
