Leonard Tarrant, representing the Hampton, Va., law firm of Balfour & Barraud, visited for breakfast and apparently discussed an eventually consummated contract to purchase flour and bread from GW. John Parke Custis, his wife, Eleanor, and her sister Elizabeth “Betsey” Calvert came during the afternoon.
