Robert Morris Letter to the Managers of the Pennsylvania Hospital, Manuscript #MS
2005.11, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library, Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.
Robert Morris (1734-1806), "the Financier of the American Revolution," was a signer
of the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the
Constitution, a powerful committee chairman in the Continental Congress, an
important figure in Pennsylvania politics, and perhaps the most prominent
businessman of his day.
Robert Morris, serving in the United States Office of Finance, writes to the Managers
of the Pennsylvania Hospital asking that they admit patients who can not be
discharged upon the closing of an Army hospital in that city.
