Manuscript Memorandum of George Washington Describing Work to be Done on His Swords

Yellowed paper with handwritten text in brown ink. The text is written in cursive and appears to be a memorandum. The paper is stained and has dark brown spots, possibly water damage. There are creases in the paper, indicating it was folded. The handwriting is difficult to read but appears to be in a single hand. The date "16 Nov. 1779" is written in the bottom left corner. The paper has a rough, aged appearance. The text is written in English. The signature at the bottom right corner reads "G. Washington".
