Alexander, I am happy to speak with you again! It has been the longest time!
And do not worry Alexander, I understand that the United States was in no
position to help, others will not be as understanding as I am. I saw the state of
your country when I left and I didn't expect you to be ready during our time of need!
I understand you were just trying to do thing right thing for your Country! And I hope you
can say hi to President George Washington for me!
Other whys I am fine, I have returned home. And for now I am fine, a bit shook and hurt but nothing
more than scares, As you have probably heard Small Pokes is going around and I am trying my best to
not get the sickness. Otherwise, I am fine and hope to know how you have been doing. I am going to be
coming back to the United States soon and hope to write to you and the whole group again! Although I have
forgotten some of my English. I hope to hear from you again soon!
Your Truly,
Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette.
