Manuscript letter

Archives Number: 1002/9.3-164#004

New York 12th [June?] 1843
Dear Sir [note in pencil: Jared Sparks]
I have recd your letter of the 9th & being ever anxious to oblige the Ladies I hasten to inform them thro you, that the Dining room at Headquarters in the year 1775 was No 2 of your plan, -- the reception Room No 1 --- and the General’s writing room No 3--- his Bedroom &c. I never knew.
I occupied a Chamber at the back of the house.
I am hardly able to write intelligibly – having been long dangerously ill – I hope I am now recovering and am dear Sir
Your respectfull Servant
Jn Trumbull
