Appointment of Hamilton to Frigate in New York

Stoddert planned to mention Hamilton to the President for an appointment to a ship in the south, due to possible objections of his status as "foreigner" from the northern states. There a few qualified men in the south, and Hamilton's appointment would be no difficulty due to his qualifications.
