Mentions the return of General Benjamin Lincoln. Hopes the transition to a peacetime military establishment will commence without further delay.

Intends to recommend Knox for the position of Secretary at War if Knox wishes. Comments that many members of Congress object to the terms of the peace establishment. Lincoln and Washington disagree on predicted expenses the office of Secretary at War will incur. Docketed in Knox's hand. For a duplicate of this letter, but with the addition of Washington's excerpt of a report from a congressional committee regarding the emoluments of the office of Secretary at War, see GLC02437.09403.
