Long Description
A few years ago my grandparents gave me this frame with what appears to be an authentic letter from George Washington dated 1777. I am a bit skeptical of the letter because of the date however I am still excited to see what people have to say. Any knowledgeable information will be helpful. Â
The letter reads:Â
"H Quarters, WhitemarshÂ
11th Dec. 1777Â
Dr. Tyren, Â
The enclosed Gazette, published the 24th at Yorktown, will show you that it is the wish of Congress that the conciliatory handbills should have an unrestrained circulation.
G. Washington"Â
