Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Official Letters to the Honorable American Congress, Vol. 2: Written, During the War Between the United Colonies and Great Britain, by His Excellency, George Washington, Commander in Chief of the Continental Forces, Now President of the United States Sir, Your resolves of the twenty-seventh ultimo were transmitted me last night by messieurs Clymer, Morris, and Walton. The confidence which Congress have honored me with by these proceedings has a claim to my warmest acknowledgments. At the same time I beg leave to assure them that all my faculties shall be employed to direct properly the powers they have been pleased to vest me with, and to advance those objects, and only those, which gave rise to this honorable mark of distinction. If my exertions should not be attended with the desired success, I trust the failure will be imputed to the true cause, - the peculiarly distressed situation of our affairs, and the difficulties I have to combat, - rather than to a want of zeal for my country, and the closest attention to her interests, to promote which has ever been my study.
