Summary
Received the copies of Jay's pamphlet, and is happy to see the strength of Jay's position in relation to Littlepage. Can understand the anxiety to which the charges have put Jay, even though he be innocent, before the vindicating facts were published. He continues to work for the federal government in the legislature but is unsuccessful in obtaining money support for the national government.
