Long-missing Alexander Hamilton letter put on public display
Fox News
A letter written by Alexander Hamilton in 1780 is back on display after it was apparently stolen from the Massachusetts state archives in World War II by a state archives worker.
It will be featured alongside Massachusetts’ original copy of the Declaration of Independence.
Hamilton, the first secretary of the treasury who’s been getting renewed attention in recent years because of the hit Broadway musical that bears his name, wrote the letter to the Marquis de Lafayette, the French aristocrat who served as a general in the Continental Army.
