- [Document, 1798 September 08]
- Abstract
- Refers to John Jay's letter of 30 August respecting the defense of the ports. A charge "of this kind would ... be unpleasant" as likely to involve ill-natured and foolish criticism. However, he will not decline the trust if the Governor thinks proper to repose it.
