Summary
Regarding the suits by the Connecticut claimants, it was not apprehended that the expenses attending the controversy would be so high. Since Jay thinks it best that Hoffman defray further expenses as they occur, he will request that the Comptroller issue a warrant on the treasury for $1,000 for that purpose.
