(171 / Dec 2nd [illegible] Quincy October 29. 1798 Sir 

    I have received the letter you did me the

Honor to write me on the 20th and am glad to have had the opportunity of consenting to the Appointment of officers who will do so much credit in their stations to the service as I believe Captain Church and Lieutenant Hamilton will do in theirs. 

    I have received from Hauteval a

Packaet of Addresses, one of which is inclosed. I don't think them of consequence enough to suppress them. 

    I have the honor to be, Sir

your most obedient & humble servant 

    John Adams

General Alexander Hamilton

121. WG125
