Letter to Alex. Hamilton from John Strachan, 19 May 1823

Abstract

Letter to Alex. Hamilton from John Strachan, York. The letter concerns the estate of Hamilton’s late father. He writes that there have been delays arising partly from the difficulty of arranging the accounts of the estate, and partly from the public avocations of the gentlemen appointed to adjust them. He says they will be ready for a final settlement in the beginning of next month, and he will come to Niagara on Monday and meet with him and his brothers the next day. He asks for his remarks and opinions not only on his own accounts, but also on the general settlement and amicable division of the estate, May 19, 1823.
