COLUMBIAN CENTINEL, Boston, Jan. 2, 1796  Page 2 has a report from the Virginia House of Delegates concerning Washington: "...that the plan contemplated for erecting an University at the Federal city...And whereas when the general assembly of Virginia presented sundry shares in the James River and Potomac companies to George Washington as a small token of their gratitude for the great, eminent and unrivaled services he had rendered to this Commonwealth, to the United States, and to the world at large...Resolved, therefore that the appropriation of the said George Washington of the aforesaid shoes in the Potomac Company to the University intended to be erected in the Federal City...".
This speaks to the creation of what would be George Washington University, as Wikipedia notes: "...George Washington...advocated the establishment of a national university in the U.S. capital in his first State of the Union address in 1790 and continued to promote this idea throughout his career and until his death. In his will, Washington left shares in the Potomac Company to endow the university. However, due to the company's financial difficulties, funds were raised independently." George Washington University would not be formally chartered until 1821.
