Trenton decr. 13. 1784
My dear Cousin,
I replied to your kind letter conveying the materials for the breeches very soon after I received it - Since that I have not had the pleasure of hearing from you. The affairs of this world are wonderful thro-out their whole Ramifications - but I would not interrupt your improving studies by calling your attention to any subject less interesting -
As a matter of mere information I may inform you that upon a question to remove the Session of Congress from hence it was not determined in the affirmative. My best love always attends your house - farewell.
Richard Henry Lee
