Excerpt from Calendar of the Correspondence of George Washington, Commander in Chief of the Continental Army, With the Continental Congress: Prepared From the Original Manuscripts in the Library of Congress by John C. Fitzpatrick, Division of Manuscripts Under an Executive order of March 9, 1903, the Washington Papers were transferred from the Department of State to the Library of Congress. Long as the manuscripts had been in the possession of the Government, no list of the letters of Washington had ever been so much as attempted; and the letters written to him had been but imperfectly listed by Jared Sparks when engaged in preparing his Writings of George W'ashington first published in 1838 - 37. The great size and historical importance of the collection demand a closer study, and a series of calendars generally descriptive of its contents. The first of these calendars deals only with the correspondence between the Gen eral and the Continental Congress.
