Summary
Reply to Peter's letter of 29 October 1794. Family news. Comments on N.Y. politics: "In this State the Political race is just starting. Mr. Burr has declared himself a candidate, and in his zeal for the Office of first magistrate he almost forgot that he was already entrusted with appointment of a senator - for the senate was some days ago detained from business by his absence which was occasioned by his intrigues to secure an election he has too much at heart ever to relinquish." Ricketts circus in New York/. Autograph letter signed. Endorsed.
