Reading edition
August 28, 1787, New York, Hamilton wrote to King: "I wrote to you some days since [August 20] to request you to inform me when there was a prospect of your finishing, as I intended to be with you, for certain reasons, before the conclusion.
"It is whispered here that some late changes in your scheme have taken place which give it a higher tone. Is this the case?"–King's Life and Correspondence of Rufus King, I, 258.
