Adjt Genl April 22d 1800
Sir
Your letter on the subject of the accounts of Capt
Olney is received, and in reply thereto I have to inform you,
that some time since I made application to McIlvain by
Charles Powers, to whom the accounts were delivered, & he informs
me that he has delivered them to Major Genl Hamilton, to this
effect I then wrote to Capt Olney. On the receipt of your letter I
made a [undecipherable] application to McIlvain & he gave me the same
answer, with the addition, that he had heard nothing of them since
he delivered them to Genl Hamilton —

but from the objections which are noted it will be impracticable
to place a settlement. You are therefore requested when convenient
to attend to this office for the purpose of giving the [undecipherable] informa-
tion on the subject —
