    Abstract
    Letter to Alex. Hamilton, P.M., Queenston, from Robert Hamilton, Hamilton. The letter states that George will be sent to school at Lewiston, and he has enclosed the first quarterly payment to be paid in advance, as requested by the Academy. He wishes for George to have a good English education, after which he will be old enough to judge for himself what kind of life he wants to follow. He notes that if the Academy can find bed and bedding for him, he would do so. If not, he asks Hamilton to arrange for accommodation, as well as other necessary articles such as books, pens and ink. He also asks that Dr. Hill attend to him professionally and charges to him quarterly. He requests that George not play with the school boys until he has recovered from his weakness, but may walk about the grounds for exercise. He is also not allowed to leave the school to go to Queenston except once every two weeks, and that he attend church every Sunday, August 1, 1837. Postmarked Hamilton Aug. 2 (date handwritten).

      Hamilton Merritt, William (1826-10-24)
      Letter to Alexander Hamilton from William Hamilton Merritt of St. Catharines. The letter asks if he could be sent Mr. Rykert’s map or plan of the Village of St. Catharines, if he or his brothers has one in their possession. He states that his object is to get the Town plot surveyed and laid out into lots, and the map will assist in this. He also asks if he has made any arrangement with Mr. Clendennin, who appears to be averse to agree to any measure until it is done, October 24, 1826.

      Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Sheriff, District Niagara, Queenston, from W. Hamilton Merritt, 7 July 1838

      Hamilton Merritt, William (1838-07-07)
      Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Sheriff, District Niagara, Queenston, from W. Hamilton Merritt. The letter concerns Mr. McLeod’s case against Mr. McDonell. He writes that Mr. McLeod has asked him to provide a return of all the lists from the District Court and the Crown Office in Toronto against Mr. McDonell, and has assured him that he will select those that will cover the amount of the payments made to him. Merritt provides a list of payments for which he has no account. He hopes that Hamilton can attend to this on his return, as he wishes to procure every document now requested and wishes for his assistance. Postmarked St. Catharines (partly illegible) July 7 1838 (date handwritten).
