[79] as the evidence of the discharge of the debt and in our [undecipherable] me for the settlement of our [undecipherable] letter. Where a bond was taken to oblige a person to make a settlement to which has been done, I have no objections to its being given up. Your Brother does not chose to give his receipt for the [undecipherable] [undecipherable] for you. I have therefore inclosed a list of them, and he requests you to send up to him your receipt — I am &c [undecipherable] Andrew Dunscomb Esq^r New York December 15^th 1786 Sir I have herewith inclosed the whole of the accounts produced by you and my observations Thereon - which I am of opinion you had best present to the State for allowance. I would have certified your accounts but it appears to be unnecessary because almost every part of them come prepared before the State and when they do not it will be better that they be settled there - I wish you to bring with you on your return copies of all your settlement you make and obtain a General Discharge for all monies received by you from the State I wish you much happiness in your journey and am &c —— [undecipherable] Col.
