“On the first days of your Arrival at Albany I dare say you had Nothing to do with Any Body’s letters. But I will now Become the Bolder in interrupting your Amorous Occupations as exclusive of other Motives the importance of the Matters I have to Mention may Countenance your indulging your dear self with some Minutes Respite.”

Marquis de Lafayette to Alexander Hamilton, 9 December 1780

Hamilton was in Albany for his wedding.
