Summary
Informs Knox that George Washington will not be able to attend the Society of the Cincinnati general meeting in consequence of an account which he received by express that his Mother & only Sister lay dangerously ill, & that he was obliged to make all possible dispatch if he wishes to find them alive. States that Washington, however, desired me to translate the Article Cincinnati & send it on to you together with the paragraph of Mr. [Thomas] Jefferson's letter.
