CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractRobert Morris continues his description of the financial state of the war and the United States to George Washington. Morris explains that the expectation of peace and the end of the war has stagnated trade, which Morris relied on to support the war efforts. Consequently, Congress is relying on the States to finance the army.
